CYCLE TIME , LEAD TIME AND TAKT TIME

 CYCLE TIME -

            Cycle time is the total time from the beginning to the end of your process or actual time required for a worker to complete one cycle of his process or cycle time is the time from when the operation begins to the point of time at which the operation ends.


LEAD TIME - 


"Lead time clock start when the request is made and ends at delivery."

Example- A customer Request their production on November 6, the company receives the order instantly and delivers the product  on November 10.He actually starts working on the product only from the 8.Therefore , the lead time here is 4 days while cycle time is 2 days.

Note- Lead time can never be less than cycle time for optimal operation at best lead time = Cycle time

Takt time-

Takt is German word which means pulse take time is the rate at which a finished product needs to be completed in order to meet customer demand. 

Takt time is the maximum amount of time in which a product needs to be produced in order to satisfy customer demand.


     Takt Time-      Net available time for production
                                    Customer daily demand

IGNITION SYSTEMS

Ignition system is a system in an internal combustion engine that produces the spark to ignite the mixture of fuel and air.  It includes the battery, ignition coil, distributor, spark plugs, and associated switches and wiring.  It is a part of the electrical system which carries the electrical current to a current plug.  It gives the spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture at the correct time Ignition Function:   It produces 30,000 volt spark across spark plug  It Distributes high voltage spark to each spark plug in correct sequence  Time of the spark occurs when piston is near to top dead center  Spark timing varies with load, speed, and other conditions Basic Ignition System: The components in ignition system are as follow:  Battery,  Switch ignition distributor  Ignition coil  Spark plugs and  Necessary wiring Ignition System types: A battery of 12 volts is generally employed. However, a very high voltage surge (of...

LUBRICATION SYSTEM

The moving parts of an I.C engine are likely to wear off due to continuous rubbing action of one part with another. In order to avoid an early wearing of the engine parts, a proper lubrication arrangement is provided in I.C. engines. Lubrication is an art of admitting a lubricant (oil, grease, etc.) between two surfaces that are in contact and in relative motion The main parts of an automotive engine require lubrication are: Main crankshaft bearings Big end bearings Gudgeon pin bearings  Piston rings and cylinder walls Camshaft and camshaft bearings Timing Gears Valve mechanism  Purpose of Lubrication: It reduces wear and tear of the moving parts. It damps down the vibrations of the engine. It dissipates the heat generated from the moving parts due to friction. It cleans the moving parts. It makes the piston gas-tight. Properties of Lubricant: Suitable viscosity Should not react with lubricating surfaces No tendency to form deposits by reacting with air, water, fue...

WHAT IS DIFFERENTIAL? HOW DOES IT WORKS?

  Differential is an integral part of all four wheelers. A differential is used to allow the wheels to spin at different speeds. This is necessary when the vehicle turns.  Parts of Differential: Pinion drive gear: transfer power from the drive shaft to the ring gear. Ring gear: will transfer power to differential case assembly. Rear drive axel: Transfer torque from differential assembly to the drive wheels. Spider gears: The spider gear lies at the heart of the differential and special mention should be made about its rotation. Differential case assembly: Hold the gear and drive the axel. Working of Differential: When turning, the inner and outer wheels have arcs of different turning radii. The inner wheels travel less distance than the outer wheels. From the drive shaft power is transferred to the pinion gear first, since the pinion and ring gear are meshed, power flows to the ring gear. As the spider gear is connected with the ring gear, po...
