Hello everyone,
I ask a general question today, how do you organize your work and your schedules?
How do you give working time to your managers? How do you calculate it?
Thank you very much and have a good day to all!
Hello
What does it mean? How do we justify our time spent on the CAD, how can we predict the time for the design of a part?
What do you mean by the organization of our work or our schedules? Personally, I do it as a priority for the company. When a piece bothers me, I make a piece that I like the most to take my mind off things and get back in shape on the piece that bothers me
Yes, that's it. "How can we predict the time for the design of a part"
In fact I would like your feedback on everything related to schedules, in CAD.
Thank you!
The most accurate way is to install an hour meter on your PC
that you start and stop at will

With us we count by the grosse,
Usually per half hour.

Hello
A vast question!! :)
What exactly are you waiting for, how is the number of hours allocated to a deal or a project formalized?
In general, the estimated time comes from your manager, or are you at the quotation/AVP stage?
What type of machine do you deal with? Special machine, adaptation of standard, development, retrofit ?
If the question is about "how do we estimate the time needed", it is mainly from experience.
Edit: yes so given your answer above, what type of CAD do you do? Part, machine...

Otherwise, to plan the time for the design of a part, it all depends on how you see the creation of your part and your experience with the CAD software. I say a little bit the time it takes me to get the part, plus a margin of error in case of a problem. For example, on a 3-hour piece, I'll say 4 or 5 hours, because your manager will always be happy if you finish the part before rather than if you finished it late. Also, if you've gotten too far ahead, there will always be a few other things to do in your work

For me, it depends a lot on your daily work.
Let me explain:
If you work on the same file all the time without being "disturbed", the gt22 counter will suit you.
If, on the other hand, you change the subject 20 times a day because you are in contact with a workshop, or with customers or both at the same time (this is my case), the counter is impossible.
So you estimate the time basically. I always have an Excel file open where I mark my time at the end of the day or half a day.

So I like Nérose but I say one day for the part, one day for assemblies with less than 10 parts. And that way I get back on track if there are any problems.
Then I make an excel calendar where I write down what has been done during the day.
Evaluated for a design time, it's still a ladle.
