Vom Start zum Ziel

MTM on the road, was the motto for the first time in this second half of the year at the AutoErg meeting at Schaeffler AG in Erlangen. In his keynote speech, Dr. Steffen Rast, Head of the Ergonomics Department at the Deutsche MTM-Gesellschaft mbH, focused on the ergonomic risk assessment of long-cycle activities.

DIGITalIZATION OF ERGONOMICS ASSESSMENT

V. and member of the global network One-MTM, is organizing the International Forum Productivity & Ergonomics for the Future (PE4F) on August 29 and 30, 2023 in presence in Mexico and as a free online event. Prof. Dr. Peter Kuhlang, CEO MTM ASSOCIATION e.

Among other things, the two MTM experts will be providing information at the exhibition on MTMmotion® the new interface solution that translates digital motion data into an MTM analysis at the touch of a button – and, depending on the application, into the corresponding MTM process module system.

At the symposium “Smart ICT and AR in the Work Context” on September 19, 2023 in Dortmund, organized by the Bundesanstalt für Arbeitsschutz und Arbeitsmedizin (BAuA), Prof. Dr. Peter Kuhlang will once again be in action. At the symposium, he will speak about the derivation of MTM-UAS® analyses using virtual reality and MTMmotion®.

The MTM experts will also be making a stop at the Future of Industrial Engineering Day (FIED) in Dortmund on September 21, 2023. The event is being organized by Motion Miners GmbH, with which the MTM ASSOCIATION e. V. works closely on the digitalization of work planning. A joint appearance by the two partners is planned at LATC 2024 on March 14 and 15, 2024 in Mannheim. Dr. Sascha Feldhorst, CEO MotionMiners GmbH, and Prof. Dr. Peter Kuhlang, CEO MTM ASSOCIATION e. V., will present a project for the determination of target performance and load ceilings in parcel and delivery services and show how the digital determination of movement data, AI and the application of the MTM method standard intertwine.
