Back to The lid press reached five days on one job with scrap low

Press 16. Aug 17 to Aug 21. ERP scrap log.

How many lids the press made and scrapped each day

What it shows: The ERP shows press 16 on the same lid job each day, with how many lids it made and how many were scrap.

Why it proves the point: Every day stays under 1 percent, and no day jumps up the way a day with a job switch likely would.
