How to Use This Calculator
- Enter the total available machine hours per period (shift, day, week).
- Input the actual machine running hours (cutting, processing) for the same period.
- Review the machine utilization rate: (actual run hours / available hours) × 100.
- Investigate planned and unplanned downtime causes if utilization falls below 75%.
- Track utilization trends weekly to measure the impact of maintenance and scheduling improvements.
