Additional Parameters

How It Works (Calculation Details)

This calculator estimates production capacity based on several key parameters:

Parameter Description Impact on Calculations
Working Hours per Shift Number of hours worked in a single shift. More hours = higher production capacity.
Number of Shifts per Day How many shifts are worked in a 24-hour period. More shifts = higher production capacity.
Working Days per Week Number of days the facility operates each week. More working days = higher weekly production capacity.
Cycle Time Time required to complete one unit or cycle of production. Lower cycle time = higher production capacity.
Production Type The manufacturing approach used in the facility. Affects efficiency factors in calculations.
Equipment Efficiency The efficiency of the equipment, considering ideal vs. actual performance. Higher efficiency = higher production capacity.
Expected Downtime Percentage of time equipment is expected to be non-operational. Higher downtime = lower production capacity.
Defect Rate Percentage of produced units expected to be defective. Higher defect rate = lower saleable production.

Formulas and Assumptions:

  • Basic Capacity = (Hours per Shift × Shifts per Day × 3600) / Cycle Time in seconds
  • OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) = Equipment Efficiency × (100% - Downtime) × (100% - Defect Rate)
  • Actual Daily Capacity = Basic Capacity × OEE
  • Weekly Capacity = Daily Capacity × Working Days per Week
  • Monthly Capacity = Weekly Capacity × 4.33 (average weeks per month)
  • Yearly Capacity = Weekly Capacity × 52
  • Potential Revenue is calculated by multiplying the capacity by the average unit price
