Instructions
Input your data in the blue sections.
Multiply your basic cycle time by the efficiency factor
Add the appropriate application factor
Note:
Grab outhaul length will vary depending on reeving.
Swing speed depends on radius. Use the following table for inputting swing speed.
Radius Slew
below 20m 2.5 rpm
20m 2 rpm
25m 1.7 rpm
30m 1.5 rpm
Result
Basic Cycle Time 56
Application Factor 4
Efficiency Factor 0.9
Cycle Time 54
Example
Calculate the cycle time for an experienced operator from 25m depth, 120 degree swing into a hopper with extreme dust.
with grab outhaul of 8m.
From 25m depth, 120 degree swing, basic cycle time is: 56
Multiply by efficiency factor, 0.9 for experienced operator 50
Add the application factor (+4 for hopper) 4
Add the application factor for extreme dust 3
