Cycle Check 1.4

Assessing process stability is crucial for maintaining operational effectiveness. How does your process perform over time? Does it operate within the customer takt time?

This application enables the measurement of process performance using only a smartphone, eliminating the need for traditional tools such as stopwatches, paper, and pens.

Designed around the principles of the classical 40-cycle analysis, the app streamlines data collection and facilitates immediate evaluation. If you are already employing 40-cycle analysis in your quality assessments, this tool can significantly reduce post-processing time, ensure data availability, and enhance accuracy.

Lean practitioners and interested stakeholders are encouraged to trial the app within their own organizations to evaluate process stability and adherence to customer takt times.

The app offers the following functionalities:

• Cycle recording via stopwatch
• Documentation of breakdowns occurring during analysis
• Graphical visualization of cycle recordings
• Archiving of recordings with process attribution
• Calculation of customer takt, planned takt, and planned machine takt
