assembly line time(s) Explanation: assembly chain temps de mise en course = time when the car to be assembled "travels" on the conveyor belt of the assembly line time spent by car on assembly line this is how I understand it -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-10 16:21:30 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- also : track speed The result of this investment and rationalization was a track speed of 101.6 cars per hour: one vehicle produced every 36 seconds, by far the fastest rate in the world. For comparison the Cortina line at Dagenham, at just over 70 cars per hour, is the fastest in Britain. Ford (Cologne) has the highest track speed in Germany with 72 cars per hour, compared with 36 cars per hour. off each line at Volkswagen.

peer agreement (net): +7setup/set-up Explanation: In capacity management (under production) http://strategis.ic.gc.ca/SSGF/bs00086f.html Le modèle de capacité compte trois catégories de capacité selon l'utilisation : capacité productive, capacité improductive et capacité inutilisée. La capacité calibrée est de 100 p. 100, soit 24 heures par jour, sept jours par semaine. Si la mesure porte sur une machine donnée, le calcul est effectué selon la cadence de production maximale selon le calibrage du fabricant, sans tenir compte des réparations, de la **mise en course** et des autres temps d'arrêt. The capacity model has three principal categories of capacity use: productive, nonproductive and idle. Rated capacity is 100 per cent or 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If a particular machine is being measured, it is the full productive speed as rated by the manufacturer without allowance for repair, **setup** and other downtime. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-10 16:47:16 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The time it takes to set up the machine/machinery/equipment has been reduced. |
