Capacity Planning Calculator
Determine how many machines are needed to meet demand based on cycle time, available hours, and OEE.
How to Use the Capacity Planning Calculator
- Enter demand in units per period.
- Enter cycle time per unit.
- Enter available hours and OEE.
- Review machines needed and utilization.
Casi d'Uso
- •Production capacity analysis
- •Capital equipment justification
- •Bottleneck identification
Formula
Machines = ⌈Demand × Cycle Time / (Hours × 60 × OEE%)⌉
