~600press hours freed per year on the five longest-running jobs

On our visit every cooling timer we could read was set to a round number. We assume each timer on these jobs runs one second longer than its part needs, which frees these press hours. They earn money only when orders fill them. A trial on each job would give the real number.

All four cooling timers we read here were round numbers, a sign of a margin set by habit.
