"In Reality there's no additional cost or extra cost for the cleaning time since there is no increase on operator's wage in doing the cleaning but instead just an additional load or job for the operators at the same wage cost." I'd have to agree...

I feel Woldgang poses an interesting question. It seems you have already decided that dispensing is the path you wish to take. Yet can you tell us why? Is there a flexibility vs. throughput arguement here? Justification of dispense via the cleani

Doesn't that depend on your company's culture & management style? We (and I feel slightly dirty using this word)empowered our end of line inspection/touch up people & trained them to know what is good or bad - so issues can be immediately fed back,
