The standards for estimating saw operations includes both the actual sawing operation and the setup of the jig, clamps, etc. The times below are in seconds. These process times may change based on the machine and if its a manual process, etc. In your software you should enter the different processes into the saw operation with the standards which you determine are correct for your business. ERP Software for the manufacturing business should be able to calculate the cycle times once you enter your standards into the system.
The cycle time of cutting is more dynamic based on the material type and cut length. There are also automated saws which you program in the different cut lengths required and the automated system sets the gauge in order to optimize the material usage based on the requirements.
(Material Type Feed Rate) * Number Of Inches Of Cutting.
(1/30)*60 which gives you 2 minutes of cycle time.
