Abstract: The performance of production systems highly depend on the effectiveness of the serving process, which consist of different materials handling operations depend on the applied machines. During the design process of serving systems there are key role of the characterisations of the handling equipment: they determine the applicability of the given machines. In my paper, I analyse the serving operations of discontinuous materials handling machines and define the time requirements of them. After the theoretical analysis I will show an example to compare the serving time requirements of bridge cranes and forklifts. This analysis is very important for the device preselection task of integrated materials handling design processes, because the serving time is a principal machine characterisation.
