Case Erector Capacity Calculator

Estimate theoretical and factor-adjusted erected case throughput from erector cycles per minute, whole cases per cycle, and a user-entered good-output realization factor. Apply the factor once only; if cycle rate already represents measured good erected cases, use 1.

Example values are prefilled to demonstrate the calculation. Replace them with values for your product, package, equipment, and operating conditions.

Inputs

Erector cycle and realization

Range: at least 0 cycles/min

Enter a positive rated or measured average cycle rate in cycles/min.

Range: at least 0 count/cycle

Enter the positive whole number of cases erected and discharged per complete cycle.

Range: 0–1 0–1

Enter a factor from 0 to 1 for sustained good erected output versus cycle-based theoretical capacity. Do not reapply losses already reflected in the entered rate.
