Solid commissioning
Start-ups designed and tested to start well and stay running.
Every hour of downtime isn't just lost production: it's margin you'll never recover, while costs keep running. Enter your numbers and find out how much downtime costs you — per hour, per event and per year.
The cost of downtime has two components: the lost margin (the production you don't make) and the fixed costs that run anyway during the stoppage (idle labor, depreciation, overhead).
Hourly cost = (parts/hour × margin/part) + fixed costs/hour. Multiplied by the duration it gives the cost per event; by the total annual hours it gives the annual cost.
200 pcs/h × €1.5 margin = €300/h of lost margin + €150/h of fixed costs = €450/h. With 2-hour stoppages, 50 times a year (100 h) → €900 per event e €45,000/year.
Indicative estimates: use the values of the line you want to analyze.
Stoppages often arise from poorly managed complex plants or from defects discovered too late. We work on reliability, commissioning and in-line quality control to reduce events and their duration.
Start-ups designed and tested to start well and stay running.
In-line control prevents a defect from becoming a stoppage or a recall.
Design oriented to maintenance, spare parts and operational continuity.
Tell us where and why your line stops: we identify the root causes and build the solution to reduce them.
