Final Test Capacity at 65% final-test station uptime: a worked example in vending, kiosk & self-service equipment

Suppose final-test station uptime falls to 65%. This page works the full calculation at that level so you can see exactly which result moves and by how much. Estimate final test capacity for vending, kiosk and self-service equipment using production-ready inputs so teams can confirm whether capacity can cover demand before committing the schedule.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Units tested per test cycle: 4 units / cycle (held at the documented default)
  • Available final-test cycles in the shift: 480 cycles (held at the documented default)
  • Final-test station uptime: 65 % (the input this scenario stresses; the baseline uses 90)
  • First-pass final-test yield: 97 % (held at the documented default)

Working through the calculation

  • The calculation starts from the formula this tool documents: Gross final test capacity = final test capacity output per cycle × available final test capacity cycles.
  • Good final test capacity works out to 1,211 units at these inputs, and this is the headline figure for the scenario.
  • Gross final test capacity works out to 1,920 units at these inputs.
  • Final test capacity downtime loss works out to 672 units at these inputs.
  • Final test capacity yield loss works out to 37.44 units at these inputs.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where final-test station uptime sits at 90% and the headline result is 1,676 units, this scenario comes in 27.78% below the baseline at 1,211 units.
  • It computes good, passed machines per shift by multiplying units per test cycle and available cycles, then derating for station uptime and first-pass test yield. When the numbers land here, the stressed input is the lever to work; the walkthrough above shows exactly how much each output recovers as it climbs back toward the baseline.

Results at a glance
