    The factor is suggested

    With at least three measured quotes, Parameters › General suggests the factor.

How the factor works

  • It multiplies the time

    1 leaves it as it is; 1.10 adds 10%. It stays between 0.5 and 3.

  • You decide

    The suggestion only counts once you apply it.

  • Measure a mix

    Small and large parts before applying give a fairer suggestion.
