Hi everybody
How do you consider the cycle time in a print shop?
The case where a work order is to produce 3000 letter size manuals.
To start, first is the printing, cutting in other machine, folding, in other machine and so on.
The question comes..
Should I count the cycle time for each folder? Or for the total order?
Because I think is difficult to count on each, since are printed five per second.
Other case producing labels in rolls, a work order could be 100,000 labels or more, in this case , the time is measured by roll? Or producing envelopes a similar case.
Please explain, thanks
