B.3.3 Operation Availability
This is a broader measure to reflect the full impact of the down time to production line.
Operation Availability tracks the downtime related to faults that might be classed as
“Procedural”.
The impact may be due to equipment issues, operator related issues, shift changeovers and so
on.
Operation Availability is defined as
The Production Time Proxy allows the availability calculation to change between customer
selected operating modes, ‘running’ or ‘power on’. The production time is defined based on the
production time proxy chosen:
• Running: If both equipment and printer are switched ON.
• Power On: If the equipment is switched ON irrespective of the status of the printer.
If the equipment is powered down when a fault is active, the amount of time that the equipment
is off is also included in the production time.
‘Operation Downtime’ is the amount of ‘Production Time’ the printer has spent in an ‘Operation
Fault State’. ‘Operation Fault state’ is defined as the period where the equipment is not available
due to a fault identified as a operation fault.
Note: Refer service manual for further information on equipment and operation fault states.
