Industrial Engineering, Time & Motion
Derives a PF&D allowance from the physical work rather than a flat rate: fabric mass handled per cycle, fatigue allowance from that mass, a reach penalty beyond the comfortable envelope, the total allowance, allowed time and the minutes it consumes per shift.

Mill Operations & Industrial Engineering
Builds a ratio pack from retail size demand: garments of each size per master carton by largest remainder allocation, the largest deviation from the demand curve, cartons required for the order and the biggest size overage it creates.
Calculator
Factory Physics & Assembly Logistics
Projects operator learning on a Wright curve: cycle time at the current piece count, efficiency against standard, the cumulative pieces needed to reach the target SMV and how many working days that represents.
Calculator
Industrial Engineering, Time & Motion
Splits a sewing cycle into machine and handling time: actual stitching time from seam length and effective machine speed, total cycle, needle-time and handling shares, and the gain available from doubling machine speed against shaving a tenth off handling.
Calculator
Factory Physics & Assembly Logistics
Balances needle heating against cooling to estimate steady needle temperature, the margin before a synthetic thread fuses, and the sewing speed at which that margin runs out.
Calculator
Industrial Engineering, Time & Motion
Builds a sewing standard minute value from motion elements without a time study: TMU for GET and PUT motions at the working distance, total motion time, basic time including machine time, the allowed SMV and output per hour.
Calculator
Machine Performance & OEE
Tracks reliability of critical textile plant assets: mean time between failures and mean time to repair from a maintenance record, resulting availability, failure rate per thousand operating hours, the repair time a target availability permits and annual downtime.
Calculator
Machine Performance & OEE
Standardises weaving stop rates for benchmarking: total picks inserted, overall CMPX and the warp and weft components separately, total stops, machine time lost to them and the efficiency that represents.
Calculator
Mill Operations & Industrial Engineering
Compares fabric order allocation across loom types: metres per hour on air-jet and rapier from insertion rate and pick density, contribution per machine hour on each, the margin advantage of the better choice, width utilisation and machine hours to complete the order.
Calculator
Mill Operations & Industrial Engineering
Balances metal protection against oil staining on circular knitting machines: film demand from needle count and speed, centrifugal throw-off from surface speed and viscosity, the feed rate actually required, surplus over it, a staining risk index and oil consumed per shift.
