Unplanned Downtime

Unexpected lost production time caused by failures, shortages, quality issues or other disruptions.

Examples

  1. 01Unplanned downtime on the filling line was 6.5 hours last week, mostly from a failing capper and missing bottles.
  2. 02The daily board shows unplanned downtime by cause, and the weekly review compares it with the last four weeks.
  3. 03A project on the capper uses unplanned downtime as its outcome measure and must keep it below 2 hours a week.
