Having 50% of the inventory, the machines downtime reached 1.5%, due of the lack of raw material, even with this slight lost of productivity, coming from 0.65% on the current scenario, the advantage in reducing the cost of capital was very important.
For the other simulated scenarios, the productivity reduction began to be more dramatic when then inventories were lower than 22.8 tons, reaching a downtime of 17.58% with zero inventories. This behavior can be observed in figure 2.
