Total Cost—This statistic reports the total operating cost of the palletizer. This statistic is
calculated as follows:
Total Cost = Equipment Operating Cost + Cost of Good Product + Cost of Lost Product + Cost
of Layers Swept + Cost of Pallets (Un)Stored
Storage statistics
The Category Overview statistics for a storage are described below. Storage Name refers
to the symbol name of the storage entered in the main module dialog box.
D ESCRIPTION
Capacity—This statistic reports the maximum number of pallets the storage can hold.
Initial Inventory—This statistic reports the number of pallets in the storage at the begin-
ning of the simulation.
Cost Per Pallet Per Day—This statistic reports the cost of holding a pallet in the storage
for one day.
P ERFORMANCE
Storage Level—This statistic reports the maximum, minimum, and average number of
pallets in the storage during the simulation.
C OST
Total Cost—This statistic is the total cost of storing the pallets in storage. This statistic is
calculated as follows:
Total Cost = Avg. Inventory * Cost/Pallet/Day * Simulation Run Length
where
Avg. Inventory is the reported average number of pallets in storage, and Simulation Run Length
is the length of the simulation in days.
Operator statistics
The Category Overview statistics for an Operator module are described below.
D
ESCRIPTION
Cost Per Hour—This statistic reports the fixed operating cost of the operator per hour.
This cost factor is entered in the Costs dialog box.
Skill Factor—This statistic reports the skill factor of the operator.
