Enter the total units produced and the hours worked into the calculator to determine the units per hour. This calculator helps to evaluate the productivity or manufacturing efficiency.
Units Per Hour Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the units per hour.
UPH = Total Units / Hours Worked
Variables:
- UPH is the units per hour
- Total Units is the total number of units produced
- Hours Worked is the number of hours spent producing the units
To calculate the units per hour, divide the total number of units produced by the number of hours worked.
What is Units Per Hour?
Units per hour (UPH) is a measure of productivity that indicates how many units of a product are produced in one hour of work. This metric is commonly used in manufacturing and production environments to assess the efficiency of production processes and workers. It can also be used to set production goals, estimate labor costs, and optimize workflow.
How to Calculate Units Per Hour?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Units Per Hour.
- First, determine the total number of units produced.
- Next, determine the number of hours worked.
- Use the formula from above = UPH = Total Units / Hours Worked.
- Finally, calculate the Units Per Hour (UPH).
- 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 Units Produced = 240 units
Hours Worked = 8 hours
