Cycle time

Max 500 km/day. 800 km = 2 days.

Why the wait is so long:
A return truck only departs when full (400 collapsed units).
You send 2 trucks/month = 128 units/month arriving at customer.
Wait for full return truck: ceil(400 / 64) = 7 trucks
Accumulation: 7 / 2 x 30 = 105 days
+ last truck dwell: 7 days
Total customer wait: 112 days
Tip: more trucks/month or LTL returns shortens this significantly.
Cycle time total (in days)
Outbound 2d + wait 112d (accum 105d + dwell 7d) + inbound 2d + buffer 29d = 145 days
