Pitch Time

Takt time multiplied by pack-out quantity; the interval at which a container or batch should be completed and moved.

Examples

01With a takt time of 30 seconds and 20 parts per box, the pitch time is 10 minutes, so a full box leaves the cell every 10 minutes.
02The logistics team checks pitch time against the route train's cycle to make sure boxes are collected on time.
03Tracking every pitch time on the board shows within 10 minutes whether the cell is behind, instead of finding out at the end of the shift.
