Available tools
- Assembly Line Pitch Container Time Tool Multiply explicit units per transfer container by supplied per-unit cycle time without balancing an assembly line.
- Assembly Operator Cycle Share Normalize explicit nonoverlapping operator busy time to one assembly cycle duration.
- Assembly Precedence One Link Slack Tool Calculate assembly precedence one link slack from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Buffer Occupancy Area Term Tool Compute one rectangular queue-occupancy integral contribution.
- Capacity Planning Setup Reserved Minute Tool Subtract explicit setup-reserved time from scheduled capacity, preserving over-reservation discrepancies without calculating output.
- Changeover External Internal Task Label Allocate an explicit changeover task duration using the supplied machine-operating availability flag.
- Changeover Sequence Cost Edge Tool Resolve one directed changeover cost from an explicit caller-supplied edge table.
- Ergonomic Reach Envelope Explicit Gap Tool Point inclusion in a supplied planar elliptical reach envelope, without an anthropometric norm or ergonomic safety assessment.
- Fixture Setup Clamping Time Budget one explicit fixture setup plus uniform per-part clamping time without assuming task overlap.
- Kanban Safety Container Rounding Gap Tool Deterministic demand-times-lead-time kanban count with explicit safety uplift and whole-container ceiling.
- Line Balance One Station Idle Term Tool One station load relative to supplied cycle time; no precedence-constrained line-balancing optimization.
- Line Balance Shared Operator Credit Tool Calculate line balance shared operator credit from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Littlelaw Wip Throughput Time Identity Tool Little-law mean inventory identity for a consistently bounded stable flow system; supplied observations must use matched periods.
- Machine Attendance Overlap Fraction Tool Calculate supplied machine-attendance overlap fraction and nonoverlap minutes without allocating labor cost or inferring safe staffing.
- Machine Changeover Internal External Time Tool Explicit SMED time ledger; moving work external reduces downtime but does not by itself reduce total work.
- Machine Minorstop Loss Time Term Tool Sum explicitly supplied disjoint minor-stop durations without selecting loss classifications or estimating production.
- Machine Yield Rework Base Gap Tool Calculate machine yield rework base gap from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Material Handling Empty Return Distance Term Tool Multiply supplied empty return distance by explicit trip count without routing or estimating energy use.
- OEE Availability Performance Quality One Factor Tool OEE factorization with explicit ideal cycle time; performance above one remains visible if the supplied ideal cycle is inconsistent.
- Operator Standard Work Walking Share Tool Calculate supplied walking time fraction and nonwalking remainder in one explicit positive standard-work cycle.
- Preventive Maintenance Cycle Availability Term Tool Observed cycle availability with explicit maintenance and repair time categories, not a reliability-derived steady-state estimate.
- Process First Pass Yield Factor Calculate first-pass yield from explicit entered and no-rework pass counts, distinguishing an empty input count.
- Process Rework Route Share Tool Calculate process rework route share from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Production Batch Transfer Count Tool Split supplied batch units into full transfer containers, loose remainder and ceiling container count using exact integer division.
- Production Cost Fixed Variable Breakpoint Tool Intersection of two supplied affine cost alternatives; negative break-even volume remains visible if no positive-volume crossing exists.
- Production OEE Availability Term Calculate only the availability component of OEE from explicit planned production time and downtime.
- Production Rework Good Unit Credit Term Tool Reconcile explicit disjoint first-pass and accepted-rework unit counts without selecting quality acceptance criteria.
- Production Yield Rework One Step Term Tool Expected one-pass rework flow without integer rounding, repeated rework loops or a quality acceptance policy.
- Queue Utilization Service Rate Gap Tool Mean arrival/capacity load check only; queueing distribution and finite waiting times require additional assumptions.
- Scrap Recovery Material Balance Term Tool Calculate scrap recovery material balance term from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Setup Family Switch Cost Token Tool Select supplied setup costs from explicit family labels, without estimating machine setup behavior.
- Setup Improvement Before After Net Term Tool Compare explicit setup-time savings after a supplied additional support-time requirement without claiming sustained productivity gains.
- Setup Lot One Unit Amortization Term Tool Calculate setup lot one unit amortization term from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Split Lot Transfer Delay One Batch Term Tool Transfer-batch readiness and count, excluding downstream blocking and overlapping transport schedules.
- Station Workload Imbalance Gap Tool Calculate station workload imbalance gap from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Takt Cycle Slack Per Unit Tool Calculate takt cycle slack per unit from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Takt Dead Time Carry Term Tool Calculate takt dead time carry term from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Takt Shift Net Minute Budget Divide an explicit net production-time budget by positive demand, treating supplied breaks and stops as nonoverlapping.
- Time Study Rating Allowance Factor Tool Distinguish an allowance added to normal time from an allowance expressed as a fraction of total standard time.
- Tool Life Cutting Time Budget Term Tool Supplied cutting-time life budget; no tool material, failure distribution or cutting-speed life model is inferred.
- Tool Wear Use Count Balance Compare an explicit cumulative tool-use count with a supplied limit without estimating wear or replacement safety.
- Unit Production Time Factor Tool Calculate unit production time factor from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
- Work Cell One Operator Overlap Term Tool One explicit cell timing model: main manual work and walking precede overlapping automatic and other manual blocks.
- Work Element Time Allowance Tool Apply an explicit allowance as a share of basic or total time; the two conventions are distinct.
- Work Sampling Observation Weight Tool Divide explicit represented work-sampling duration equally among a positive supplied observation count without asserting representative sampling.
- Work Station Cycle Margin Compare an explicit station cycle observation with a caller-supplied cycle allowance.
- Workstation Walk Reach Time Term Tool Calculate workstation walk reach time term from explicit caller-supplied inputs.
