From the observations, the high action distances are actually due to the highly repetitive trial and error setup
operation. The operators who were performing the setup of thermocouples and vacuum hoses repeatedly walk back
and forth from the inside of the autoclave machine to the control panel to check on the status of the thermocouples
and vacuum hoses. Excessive motion waste was also observed while setup up since the operators need to travel far
distances to obtain thermocouples and vacuum hoses. Thus, to reduce the amount of unnecessary motion waste a
specialized changeover cart is used.
