How do you calculate cycle time savings when upgrading to a faster tapping center?

Grab your current program: count tool changes, rapids, and cutting time. Multiply tool changes by old chip-to-chip (say 4-6 sec) vs new (1.8 sec). Add rapid traverse savings-higher feeds shave seconds per move. Factor spindle accel/decel; faster rpm ramp-up adds up on short holes. Switching to the TMC-800L often drops cycle time 25-40% on hole-heavy parts thanks to 20,000 rpm and quick ATC. A 5-minute job becomes 3-4 minutes-multiply by daily output for real ROI. Include setup reductions from better probing too.
