You cannot reduce downtime you do not measure. This free Excel downtime tracking sheet gives your team a simple, consistent way to log every stop, categorize the cause, and see where the minutes actually go — the groundwork for any OEE improvement.
What the free template includes
- Downtime log — date, machine, start, end, duration computed automatically
- Cause categories — breakdowns, changeovers, micro-stops, quality, startup — mapped to the Six Big Losses
- Summary view — minutes lost by cause and by machine, so priorities are obvious
- Example rows — realistic sample entries so the team knows exactly what to enter

When Excel is no longer enough
Manual logs capture what operators remember — usually the big stops, rarely the micro-stops that cost the most. TeepTrak records every stop automatically, in real time, without touching your PLCs.
Free tool: once you’re logging stops, put a euro value on them with our Machine Downtime Cost Calculator.
