Step-by-step calculation

    Formula

    Cycles per day = (Hours × 60 ÷ Cycle time) × Efficiency Sheets per day = Cycles × Openings × Sheets per opening CBM per day = Sheets × L × W × t

    Worked example

    Calculated with the default values shown in the form.

      Technical notes

      • Cycle time must include loading, closing, pressing, decompression and unloading.
      • Enter 2 sheets per opening if the press is loaded with two panels per daylight.
      • Press output is the usual plant bottleneck; compare this figure with veneer and sanding capacity.
