How to Calculate OEE for Single Machine and Multiple Parts. Flexible manufacturing provides the advantage of producing many different parts on the same piece of equipment. The same is true for processes such as stamping presses, molding machines, or machining operations. The first question most often asked is, “How do we calculate OEE for a piece of equipment that is capable of manufacturing multiple […]

OEE and Standardized Work
Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE): Standardized Work After you start collecting OEE data for your processes, you may notice significant variance between departments, shifts, and even employees performing the work. Of the many aspects that you will be inclined to investigate, standardized work should be one of them. Making sure that all employees are executing a process or sequence of processes […]

LEAN Environment: Waste Management and OEE
In recent years much emphasis has been placed on the state of our environment and LEAN can help our cause. If we consider just how much energy and resources are consumed due to inefficiency and waste. OEE is a measure of how effectively time is used as a resource; however, it does not necessarily reflect the waste that is created in […]

Weighted OEE: How To Calculate Total Plant OEE
In this post we will present a simple method to calculate a truly weighted OEE, including weighted factors Availability, Performance, and Quality. The QUICK weighted OEE method: Recalling our original definition of OEE, we are measuring how effectively our planned production time (net available time) is used to make a quality (saleable) product. The weighted OEE then is the total time […]

OEE, Downtime, and TEEP
We have received several inquiries regarding equipment down time – periods of time when the machine is not scheduled to run. We consider this to be scheduled down time or idle time and does not affect Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), since no production was planned during this period. OEE measures overall equipment effectiveness during planned production or SCHEDULED up time. Do […]
