Takt time
Concepto
The pace at which a product must be completed to meet customer demand, calculated as the available production time divided by the customer demand in the same period.
Descripción
Takt time is the pace at which a product has to be completed to meet customer demand. It is calculated by dividing the available production time in a period by the customer demand in the same period. If a line has 450 minutes of available time per shift and customers need 90 units, the takt time is 5 minutes per unit.
Takt time is a target set by demand, not a measure of how fast a process is. It is compared with the cycle time of each step. A step slower than takt becomes a bottleneck, a step much faster waits. Takt time is used to balance lines, size teams and design flow, and it is a key figure in value stream mapping.
