ANSWER
- Speed loss appears as positive because it is calculated from the difference between validated speed and realized speed. If the realized speed is lower than the validated speed, the formula produces a positive speed loss—even if the line never exceeds its validated speed.
This is the formula we use:
speed loss = uptime * (validated speed - realized speed) / validated speed
realized speed = produced / uptime
Note: A negative value, means positive speed loss
ADDITIONAL DETAILS (if needed)
-
Realized speed is based on actual production over uptime, while validated speed is the expected maximum. Any gap between the two is reflected as speed loss.
LIMITATIONS (if applicable)
- Speed loss depends on accurate uptime and production data
- Incorrect validated speed settings will affect the result
- Does not account for reasons behind reduced speed
