How many times have you, or someone you know, challenged the measurement process or method used to collect the data because the numbers just “don’t make sense” or “can’t be right”? It is imperative to have integrity in the data collection process to minimize the effect of phantom improvements through measurement method changes. Switching from a manual recording system to […]

Improving OEE: A Hands On Approach
We have explored Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) from several perspectives and how it can be used as an effective performance metric. The purpose of measuring and monitoring OEE, at a minimum, should be three fold: To ensure the current performance levels are sustained, To identify new opportunities for improvement, To assess the effectiveness of current improvement initiatives. The Culture of Continuous Improvement and […]

OEE For Dedicated – Single Part – Processes
OEE For Dedicated – Single Part – Processes Definition: Dedicated – Single Part – Process: A process that produces a single product or slight variations on a theme and does not require significant tooling or equipment changeover events. A single part process is the easiest application for a OEE pilot project. The single part process also makes it easier to demonstrate […]
