Sheet Metal Stamping & Press Lines worked example

Coil Yield at 99% target coil yield benchmark: a worked example in sheet metal stamping & press lines

This scenario runs the coil yield calculation on the strong side: 99% target coil yield benchmark, with every other input held at its documented default. Use it when coil yield in sheet metal stamping and press lines needs a clean rate and gap-to-target you can put on a tier board.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Scrap or offal weight from coil: 8 units (unchanged)
  • Total coil weight consumed: 250 units (unchanged)
  • Target coil yield benchmark: 99 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 95)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Coil Yield rate = affected amount รท total amount) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 3.2 % for rate, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 95.8 points for gap to target.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 8 count for affected count.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 250 count for total count.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where target coil yield benchmark sits at 95% and the headline result is 3.2 %, this scenario lands almost exactly on the baseline at 3.2 %.
  • Use it when evaluating a strip layout, auditing a supplier coil, or building the material-cost line of a stamping quote. Treat this as a target state: the delta against the baseline quantifies what the improvement is worth before you commit to chasing it.

Results at a glance

  • Rate: 3.2 % (headline result)
  • Gap to target: 95.8 points
  • Affected count: 8 count
  • Total count: 250 count
