Wire Marking

Wire Marking is a function of the Wire (W) type, and wire length, number of wires, and machine marking speed. The batch setup time is multiplied by the number of individual wires. Setup time of 2 minutes is estimated by manufacturers in the industry.

Process time = (Number of Marks) / (Marking Rate)

Number of Marks = (Length To Mark) / (Distance Between Marks)

Default values for Marking Rate and Distance Between Marks is derived from the aPriori machine tables where the actual variables are lengthBetweenWraps and defaultMarkingRate.
