OEE Definition

www.oeefoundation.org

The OEE Industry Standard gives a guideline in order to find ALL potential losses in effectiveness.

WHY?An average machine in an average factory runs about 35 to 45% OEE.

So it is losing 55 to 65% capacity!

While; - not running - running at reduced speed - or producing parts out of spec.

How come then, that the average management reports numbers way over 80%?

It is a matter of definition, What you are not looking for you will not find.

To really reveal the hidden machines in your factory, ALL Losses need to be defined and visualized.

Why you should ACT NOW
