OEE is a framework for measuring the efficiency and effectiveness of a process, by breaking it down into three constituent components (the OEE Factors); these are Availability, Performance, and Quality. The three types of productivity losses associated with the factors are Down Time Loss, Speed Loss, and Quality Loss. Assembly or manufacturing efficiency includes more than the quantity of parts you are capable of producing in a shift. Efficiency is only one factor. OEE is defined in the sub categories compiled to calculate your overall equipment effectiveness or OEE. Performance: Compare actual output with actual capability Availability: Compare potential operating time to the time you are actually producing product Quality: Compare the number of products produced with the number of products that meet customerÕs specifications. Our ProductionWare solution provides ÒAvailabilityÓ reporting (Run Time), ÒPerformanceÓ reporting (Production Output) and ÒQualityÓ Reporting (Good Output) utilized to calculate OEE utilizing live data. ProductionWare incorporates the capability to monitor and provide reporting for the six categories of productivity losses that are almost universally experienced in manufacturing: Breakdowns, Setup and Adjustments, Small Stops, Reduced Speed, Startup Rejects and Production Rejects. ProductionWare will provide Visual OEE performance data that you can see when you need it. Performance data will be available in real-time to everyone including operators, maintenance personnel, supervisors, managers, etc. Performance data you canÕt see is performance data you cannot use, thus limiting your opportunities to improve. |
