Production Cycle and Cycle Time Radio (CTR)
1min
Production Cycle and Cycle Time Ratio KPI allows you to track how much time it takes to complete production and monitor the production cycle time compared to an ideal production cycle time.
When creating an analytics flow, refer to details about this function processor by reviewing Processor Flow Parameters.
The following information describes this KPI:
- Use Actual Production Time to keep track of how much time it takes to complete production by counting the time between when you received an order to when manufacturing is finished, or counting the time between the start of manufacturing to when inspection ends.
- Use Cycle Time Ratio if you need to monitor the production cycle time compared to an ideal production cycle time.
- The timer interval parameter is useful if the connected input tag is offline but you still want this KPI to look for a value every few seconds, defined by the timer.
- You should have 2 inputs connected with this KPI, with the definitions of their connections as *manufactureStart *and *manufactureEnd *respectively. For example, if you define Manufacture Start From: 0 and Manufacture Start To: 1, this means that when the value from the input tag, with the definition on the connection as manufactureStart, will go from 0 to 1, it is an indication that manufacture was started and production cycle should start to be calculated. Manufacture End works the same way. Manufacture End From: 2 and Manufacture End To: 4 means whenever the input tag with connection definition as *manufactureEnd *goes from 2 to 4, it is an indication that manufacture just ended.
