Understanding your actual, effective design capacity is crucial for accurate planning. Productivity, the ratio of outputs to inputs, is your key metric.

Key Points

  • Distinguishes effective and real design capacity πŸ“
  • Measure productivity: Exits / Entries πŸ“Š
  • Identify areas for improvement regularly πŸ”

Practical Example: One plant had a design capacity of 1000 units/day, but its effective capacity was 750 due to tool changes. By measuring the gap, it implemented SMED and increased effective capacity to 920 units/day (+23%).
