OnRamp Automated Line Utilization Report
Every night, WebRun opens OnRamp, reads the camera-based hook density measurements for the day, calculates line utilization against the target parts-per-hook you set, records the daily figure and trend in a Google Sheet, and posts your team a Slack report that highlights any shift or line that ran under target.
How do I report powder coating line utilization from hook density?
WebRun opens OnRamp each night and reads the camera-based hook density measurements from the line that day. It calculates utilization against your target parts per hook, records the figure and rolling trend in a Google Sheet, then posts your team a Slack report that flags any shift or line that ran under target, so empty hooks and lost capacity get caught early.
- Line utilization is measured against target every single day
- Shifts that ran light surface in a nightly Slack report
- A rolling Google Sheet trend shows whether racking is improving
Built for powder coating shops · contract coaters · finishing line supervisors · operations managers

Questions, answered
Where does the hook density data come from?
It comes straight from the camera-based hook density readings OnRamp already captures on your line. WebRun reads those measurements, calculates utilization against your target, and never estimates or invents a number that the line did not record.
What is a good target hook density?
You set the target parts per hook for your parts and line, since it depends on part geometry and rack design. WebRun scores each shift against the target you enter and flags any run that came in under it, so you decide what full looks like.
Does the report go to anyone outside my shop?
No. The utilization report posts only to your internal Slack channel and the trend lives in your Google Sheet. WebRun never shares throughput or capacity figures outside your team on its own.
