Generating and Interpreting Factory Analysis Reports

Complete these steps to generate an analysis report of machine data, including utilization.

1. Open the DWG layout from which you wish to derive a report.
2. Click Generate Report on the Material Flow drop-down menu on the Factory tab.
3. Name the report file and click Save.

Interpreting Report Results

Included in the report are the following calculations.

Note: The roundup operation in the following calculations indicates rounding the value up to the next higher integer.

Transportation Time	For continuous transportation types: If (setup time + processing time) * batch size < (length of the connection line/travel speed) sum of (setup time + processing time) * batch size for all jobs Otherwise: sum of (length of the connection line / travel speed + load time + unload time) * (roundup(part quantity of the job/batch size)) for all jobs For non-continuous transportation types: sum of (length of the connection line / travel speed + load time + unload time) * (roundup(part quantity of the job/batch size)) for all jobs
Transportation Cost	For continuous transportation types: If (setup time + processing time) * batch size < (length of the connection line/travel speed) sum of (setup time + processing time) * batch size * transportation cost rate for all jobs Otherwise: sum of (length of the connection line / travel speed + load time + unload time) * (roundup(part quantity of the job/batch size)) * transportation cost rate for all jobs For non-continuous transportation types: sum of (length of the connection line / travel speed + load time + unload time) * (roundup(part quantity of the job/batch size)) * transportation cost rate for all jobs
Production Cost	(setup time * setup cost rate + processing time * processing cost rate) * part quantity at each operation for all jobs
Total Cost	total transportation cost + total production cost
Travel Distance	For continuous transportation types: sum of length of the connection line * (roundup(part quantity of the job/batch size)) for all jobs For non-continuous transportation types: sum of length of the connection line * (roundup(part quantity of the job/batch size)) for all jobs Note: If bidirectional, the distance will be doubled
Total Energy Consumption (kW.h)	(setup time + processing time) * part quantity * energy consumption rate at each operation for all jobs

For daily desired production rate:

Machine Utilization for a station = ((setup time in minutes + processing time in minutes ) * daily desired production rate for all jobs at the station / (number of shifts * shift hours * 60 * percent uptime)) * 100%

For hourly/minute/second desired production rate:

Machine Utilization for a station = ((setup time in minutes + processing time in minutes) * minutely desired production rate for all jobs at the station * percent uptime) * 100%
