The Measurement Trap Walk into most modern factories and you’ll find the same scene: OEE dashboards on office walls, weekly performance reports in managers’ inboxes, and shift summaries neatly filed away. Everyone’s measuring overall equipment...
The illusion of good overall equipment effectiveness “Our OEE is excellent we’re at 78%.” We hear this often. Plant managers showing us their spreadsheets, confident in their numbers. Until we install sensors and start measuring for real. Then that...
Most factories proudly calculate their OEE in Excel. When you ask how to calculate OEE, they’ll show you spreadsheets with formulas, color-coded cells, and weekly reports that look professional enough to present in any boardroom. But here’s the problem:...
Most manufacturers proudly report their OEE every week but few truly understand what this key performance indicator actually measures. Walk into any factory and ask about their Overall Equipment Effectiveness. You’ll get a confident number: “We’re...
OPC UA Monitoring Overview OPC UA monitoring is real-time time monitoring of production data using the Unified Architecture protocol developed by the OPC Foundation. This approach tracks Overall Equipment Effectiveness by capturing machine status, production counts,...
In the competitive world of modern manufacturing, operational efficiency defines success. Every production line, every operator, and every minute counts. To maintain profitability, factories must gain a clear understanding of their manufacturing process, identify...
OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is the benchmark indicator for measuring the performance of automotive production equipment. Industrial monitoring transforms OEE management by automating data collection and eliminating manual reporting. In mechanical parts...
OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) has become a key indicator for measuring the performance of production equipment. CalculatingOEE in the food industry The sector’s strict sanitary constraints, high production rates and tight margins make it unique. Faced...
Benchmarking 2025 reveals spectacular differences between industrial sectors. Is your OEE of 68% excellent or worrying? This exclusive study analyzes data from 3,500 plants in 12 countries to help you position yourself against the global competition. Sector OEE...
Your production line is running at 65% of its OEE. You’re losing 35% of productive capacity, without knowing exactly where or how. What if I told you that 6 types of loss explain almost all of these inefficiencies? In the 1980s, Japanese engineer Seiichi...
