Enter the total number of parts produced and the hours worked into the calculator to determine the parts per hour productivity rate.
Parts Per Hour Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the parts per hour productivity rate.
PPH = TP / HW
Variables:
- PPH is the parts per hour productivity rate
- TP is the total parts produced
- HW is the hours worked
To calculate the parts per hour, divide the total number of parts produced by the hours worked.
What is Parts Per Hour?
Parts per hour (PPH) is a measure of productivity that indicates how many parts are produced by a machine, production line, or worker within one hour. It is a crucial metric in manufacturing and production environments to assess efficiency, set production goals, and identify areas for process improvement.
How to Calculate Parts Per Hour?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Parts Per Hour.
- First, determine the total number of parts produced (TP).
- Next, determine the hours worked (HW).
- Use the formula PPH = TP / HW.
- Finally, calculate the Parts Per Hour (PPH).
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
Total parts produced (TP) = 120 parts
Hours worked (HW) = 8 hours
