<![CDATA[Batik Khas Sukadiri Lor is a batik product whose production process is still carried out manually, resulting in imbalanced hand activities and suboptimal work motions. This study aims to analyze the work system and working time and design an improved work method for the stamping and dyeing processes using the Left and Right Hand Process Chart (PTKTK). The research involved direct observation, stopwatch time measurement, analysis of actual and proposed PTKTK, and calculation of cycle time, normal time, and standard time using the Westinghouse method and allowance factors. The results showed that the right hand was more dominant in the main activities, while the left hand experienced idle time in several activities. The stamping process had a cycle time of 38 minutes, a normal time of 39.90 minutes, and a standard time of 56.66 minutes. The proposed improvements through facility rearrangement, motion simplification, and balancing of both hand activities produced a more balanced work method and reduced the stamping process time compared with the initial condition.]]>
