Total Time Speed Factor Equaled 0—This statistic reports the total time the speed factor
of the conveyor was equal to zero.

U

SAGE

Utilization—This statistic reports the percentage of time during the simulation run that the
conveyor was capable of transferring product. Only scheduled time is considered. This
statistic is calculated as follows:

Utilization = (Total Time Speed Factor Greater Than 0)/( Simulation Run Length – Total Time
Stopped)

where

Simulation Run Length is the duration of the simulation run and Total Time Stopped is the
reported total time the conveyor was in a scheduled stop.

C

OST

Equipment Operating Cost—This statistic reports the fixed operating cost of the conveyor
over its scheduled time. This statistic is calculated as follows:

Equipment Operating Cost = (Simulation Run Length – Total Time Stopped) * (Cost/Hour)

where

Simulation Run Length is the duration of the simulation run, Total Time Stopped is the reported
total time the conveyor was in scheduled stops, and Cost/Hour is the cost factor entered in the
Costs dialog box.

Cost of Good Product—This statistic reports the variable cost of conveying good product
off the conveyor. This statistic is calculated as follows:

Cost of Good Product = Total Good Units Conveyed * Cost/Good Unit

where

Total Good Units Conveyed is the reported total of good units conveyed, and Cost/Good Unit is
the cost factor entered in the Costs dialog.

Cost of Lost Product—This statistic reports the variable cost of conveying lost product off
the conveyor. This statistic is calculated as follows:

Cost of Lost Product = Total Units Lost * Cost/Lost Unit

where

Total Units Lost is the reported total of units lost off the conveyor, and Cost/Lost Unit is the cost
factor entered in the Costs dialog box.

Total Cost—This statistic reports the total operating cost of the conveyor. This statistic is
calculated as follows:

Total Cost = Equipment Operating Cost + Cost of Good Product + Cost of Lost Product
