318949.1261 Very chaotic looking chronocyclegraph of handkerchief folding. No Gilbreth number. Similar to the series depicted in 618-G70 and 618-G69, but many more cycles. This looks like some degree of habit.

618-G70-4 See 618-G69-4 [caption to 618-G69-4 is: Inexperienced operator (in 618-G68-4) after one hour of training in our method.]

618-G70-1 Shows the front view of woman folding pieces of cloth; or, in other words, ten cycles of the same operation as shown as one in 618-69-1 and as shown from her right side in 618-G70-3, and from her left side in 618-G70-2. It will be seen in each one of these pictures that there are certain deviations from the standard paths, and this is due to the fact that the pieces of cloth were not handed to the operator under standard conditions. With the exception of these special deviations the path of habit is very clearly shown.

618-G70-2 This picture shows ten cycles of folding ten handkerchiefs. The single motion of execution shown on top of this cyclegraph is for turning handkerchiefs around that were not brought to the worker in the standard relative position with the rest of the pile.

Right view of operation of 618-G70-1.

618-G70-3 618-G68-2 shows left side view of motions of folding handkerchiefs and 618-70-3 shows right hand view of same motions repeated ten times, or the folding of ten similar handkerchiefs. The marks of habit are strongly shown in this photograph, and the exception motions are due to the necessity of turning over handkerchiefs that were supplied with the initial in the wrong corner. The camera was moved slightly sideways during the process of the folding, showing the chronocyclegraph stretched in order to more easily count the different lines. This is shown by the double lines on the boxes in the right hand side of the picture.
