Reel-to-reel line
Everything indexes together; idle positions between print and punch give drying time. Runs in lots with a setup per reel.

What is in the model
- How it runs
- Every station indexes together, and it runs lights-out between shifts
- Lots
- 4,000 parts per lot, with a changeover between lots
- Operators
- Day 06:00–14:00, 1 operator, 5 days a week
| Station | Cycle (s) | Buffer after |
|---|---|---|
| Unwind | 1 | 2 parts |
| 3 | 2 parts | |
| Punch | 2 | 2 parts |
| Vision check | 1.5 | 2 parts |
| Rewind | 1 | 2 parts |
Every figure can be changed: rename anything, move it on the floor, add tasks, shifts or stations.
Things to try
- Find the bottleneck station and see how much an improvement there is worth.
- Shorten the changeover between lots and watch OEE move.
- Add buffer space between stations so one stoppage does not block the line.
- Run lights-out and see what an unattended night adds.
