  2. Takt time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takt_time

    Takt time, or simply takt, is a manufacturing term to describe the required product assembly duration that is needed to match the demand.Often confused with cycle time, takt time is a tool used to design work and it measures the average time interval between the start of production of one unit and the start of production of the next unit when items are produced sequentially.

  3. Turnaround time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnaround_time

    Lead Time vs Turnaround Time: Lead Time is the amount of time, defined by the supplier or service provider, that is required to meet a customer request or demand. [5] Lead-time is basically the time gap between the order placed by the customer and the time when the customer get the final delivery, on the other hand the Turnaround Time is in order to get a job done and deliver the output, once ...

  4. Standard time (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_time_(manufacturing)

    In industrial engineering, the standard time is the time required by an average skilled operator, working at a normal pace, to perform a specified task using a prescribed method. [1] It includes appropriate allowances to allow the person to recover from fatigue and, where necessary, an additional allowance to cover contingent elements which may ...

  5. Lean manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean_manufacturing

    Takt time is the rate at which products need to be produced to meet customer demand. The JIT system is designed to produce products at the rate of takt time, which ensures that products are produced just in time to meet customer demand. [48]

  6. Demand flow technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_Flow_Technology

    Takt-time is the ratio of time to volume at capacity and in DFT is expressed as Where HE is Effective Hours, S is the number of shifts and DC is the demand at capacity, a daily rate set for design purposes at some point 2 to 5 years into the future.

  7. Mean time between failures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_time_between_failures

    MTBF can be calculated as the arithmetic mean (average) time between failures of a system. The term is used for repairable systems while mean time to failure (MTTF) denotes the expected time to failure for a non-repairable system. [1] The definition of MTBF depends on the definition of what is considered a failure.

  8. Unit of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    A unit of time is any particular time interval, used as a standard way of measuring or expressing duration. The base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI), and by extension most of the Western world , is the second , defined as about 9 billion oscillations of the caesium atom.

  9. Operations management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operations_management

    The calculation of the time-line (bottom) usually involves using Little's law to derive lead time from stock levels and takt time. In Toyota the TPS represented more of a philosophy of production than a set of specific lean tools, the latter would include: SMED: a method for reducing changeover times
