The Cycle Time Calculator can calculate the cycle time to almost process. It has 4 different calculators. The first one is a stopwatch that can not only calculate the Cycle Time, Parts Per Hour, and Parts Per Day; While using extra variables such as Parts Per Cycle, Hours per Shift, and Shifts per Day. The second Calculator is a Conveyor Feet Per Minute, that calculates cycle time, Parts Per Hour, and Parts Per Day based off speed of the conveyor, size of the parts and the spacing between the parts; It also has the extra variables such as Parts Per Cycle, Hours per Shift, and Shifts per Day. The third calculator is the Seconds Calculator, and the 4 the Calculator is the Minutes Calculator. These calculators are used if you have a known cycle time and desire to know the parts per hour and parts per shift while using the extra variables, Parts Per Cycle, Hours per Shift, and Shifts per Day. You can easily walk through a factory and find the bottlenecks.
