Production Capacity Calculator

Calculate your factory's maximum production output per shift and per day — enter cycle time, OEE and number of machines to get daily and monthly capacity instantly.

How This Calculator Works

Theoretical Capacity = Shift Time (sec) ÷ Cycle Time Effective Capacity = Theoretical × OEE% Daily Output = Effective/Shift × Shifts × Machines

Reducing cycle time by 10% increases effective capacity by the same %. Focus on the bottleneck machine — it determines your entire line's output.

Design Capacity vs Effective Capacity

Design capacity is the theoretical maximum output if everything runs perfectly. Effective capacity accounts for OEE losses — breakdowns, speed reductions, and quality defects. Most factories operate at 55–75% of their design capacity. Closing this gap through OEE improvement is typically the fastest way to increase output without capital investment.
