Platform Features · Capacity Utilisation

You own more capacity than you think. Find it.

Booked hours, worked hours, free hours — per machine, per cell, per plant. Utilisation truth that prices idle capacity in rupees and answers 'can we take this order?' with data.

Booked but not worked: 108 h. That gap, not the order book, is the real capacity question.

The problem it kills

Utilisation is the cheapest capacity you will ever buy.

MYTH

'We're full' — are you?

Order-book full and machines idle coexist everywhere. Worked-hours truth against booked hours exposes the gap between promised and produced.

PRICE

Idle hours have a rate

Every machine has an hourly rate; every idle hour is that rate, lost. Idle capacity priced in rupees changes Monday meetings.

QUOTES

Promising blind

Sales commits delivery against capacity nobody measured. Live free-hours per machine makes every promise a calculation.

Questions

Straight answers.

How is machine capacity utilisation calculated?
Worked hours divided by available hours, per machine, cell or plant. MachineWise takes worked hours from actual machine states and booked hours from route cards and schedules, so free capacity is computed continuously.
What is the difference between utilisation and OEE?
Utilisation asks how much of the available time a machine worked; OEE also asks how fast and how well it worked within planned time. See OEE vs machine utilisation.
How is idle capacity priced in rupees?
Each free hour is multiplied by that machine's machine-hour rate, so idle capacity appears as a rupee figure per machine, cell and plant, and the same view sizes weekend and night-shift opportunity.
Can sales check capacity before promising a delivery date?
Yes. Quote-ready availability views show live free hours per machine and separate bottlenecks from starved machines, so a delivery promise becomes a calculation rather than a guess.
