    Redhot Jumper Productivity and Efficiency

    How do you track your labs productivity? Jobs per day? or do you use Jobs per man hour?

    If so, what do you consider to be a good number?

    Primarily for a small to medium size lab. So no automated/digital equipment. Think SGX and a Fancy (bells and whistles) edger.

    it depends on your product mix, skill set of the techs.
    if you let me know what these are broken down into surfaced and glazing only, tints, and any rimless i can give you some figures.

    I have a fairly small size lab using Essilor Gamma tracer and edger. Just wondering if anyone has any tips on speeding up the edging time!? I've thought of cutting the water off but not sure how or when is best to do so. Since i'm on my own it's getting difficult to handle ordering/checking/glazing/dotting up and then making sure jobs are out as quick as they can be! I've turned off auto-chamfer and just do that myself on a hand-edger, which has helped a little. Any help grateful...cheers guys!
