Cycle Time Calculator

Turn cycle time into parts-per-hour and total run time for quoting and capacity planning.

Cycle time is the seconds per part; invert it for throughput. It feeds capacity planning and per-part labor and machine cost.

Formula: Parts/hr = 3600 / Cycle time (s)

Worked Example

  1. A 12-second cycle.
  2. Parts/hr = 3600 / 12 = 300 parts per hour.
