What it calculates
The “Bottleneck Analysis” calculator computes Line throughput in pcs/h from 6 parameters: stage 1: capacity (pcs/h), stage 2: capacity (pcs/h), stage 3: capacity (pcs/h), stage 4: capacity (pcs/h), stage 5: capacity (pcs/h), required output (pcs/h).
A handy everyday calculator for daily tasks.
Example calculation
With parameters Stage 1: capacity = 120 pcs/h, Stage 2: capacity = 95 pcs/h, Stage 3: capacity = 80 pcs/h, Stage 4: capacity = 110 pcs/h, Stage 5: capacity = 100 pcs/h, Required output = 90 pcs/h the result is 80 pcs/h (A stage with capacity 0 is ignored).
