Setup & Changeover

?

Setup work is often performed while a machine is still running. Reducing setup time may reduce labor effort, but it only creates additional productive machine-hours if setup requires the machine to stop.

Changeover Types: 0 | Total Setup Time: 0 hrs/wk

Automated/Lights-out

?

Automated/Lights-out hours are never counted at the same time as staffed hours. If automation mainly reduces how closely operators must attend machines (without increasing total productive machine-hours), the financial impact should show up in Labor Savings, not here.

Reality Adjustments

?

Recovered machine-hours only become real dollars when filled with production. Capacity Realization lets you discount the value if demand isn't there yet.
