A time and motion study was applied to collect the data for the processing system and the data recorded and processed. The working cycle of the machine was also recorded and all variables that affect productivity. The result shows productivity was significantly affected by the log supplied characteristics, sawing patterns, maintenance of equipment and level of training. This reveals the need to improve equipment availability and maintenance during sawing.enProductivityBand sawDelay analysesWorking cycleMaintenanceArticle
