APPLICATION NOTES
Use the result on the floor
Analyze a local CSV of downtime categories and durations into a ranked Pareto table with cumulative percentages. Keep the input boundary, unit definitions, and time period attached to any recorded result so another person can reproduce it.
Useful for
- Rank equipment stop reasons by lost time.
- Prepare a loss review from exported event logs.
- Identify the small set of categories contributing most downtime.
MODEL BOUNDARY
Assumptions and limitations
Assumptions
- The first row contains unique column headers.
- Duration values are non-negative plain numbers using a period as the decimal separator.
- Blank category values are grouped as “Unspecified”.
Limitations
- Files are limited to 5 MB and 50,000 data rows in this browser tool.
- The parser handles standard quoted CSV but does not infer locale-specific numbers, repair malformed exports, or merge synonymous reason names.
- Pareto ranking shows frequency and duration, not root cause or business impact.
