How long does it really take to deliver a usable part?

Machine build time tells only part of the story.

Measure the time from your chosen job start to an accepted, ready-to-use component. See what happens before and after the build, record processing and waiting stages, and review comparable jobs to identify recurring delays.

Questions about the clock

Does time outside machine building mean wasted time?

No. Cooling, cleaning, finishing, inspection and other activities may be essential to producing an accepted component.

Does this tool automatically identify my bottleneck?

No. It shows recorded elapsed time and activity durations. Identifying a release constraint requires understanding which activities, resources and approvals prevented earlier release.

Can I compare different manufacturing technologies?

Only with care. Materials, geometries, equipment, quantities and acceptance requirements can differ substantially. This tool does not provide universal technology benchmarks.
