WIRE HARNESS TAKT TIME

What is takt time, why is it important and how to calculate it
Nov 10, 2016Takt time - if we take our available production time (410 minutes) and divide that by our customer demand (100), the takt time equates to 4.1 minutes or 246 seconds. This means a completed unit must be finished every 246 seconds or there is a danger the electronics manufacturer will not meet their customer's demand.

In the long run that’s a good thing; don’t ignore your problems, they’ll just grow.
