Line Rate
Output rate of a production line, typically units per minute, hour or shift.
Examples
- 01The bottling line is designed for a line rate of 300 bottles per minute, set by the filler, which is the slowest machine.
- 02Supervisors compare the actual line rate with target every hour on the line board and note the reason for every gap.
- 03After the labeller's changeover is shortened, the average line rate per shift rises from 255 to 280 bottles per minute.
