OEE Software

OEE Software:

OEE Software or Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) software is a software that is used to monitor and measure productivity of manufacturing machinery.
The real-time performance issues an be highlighted to provide you the control so that you become more proactive and issues are managed more effectively.
The Overall Equipment Effectiveness can be accurately tracked, monitored, and analyzed. The manufacturing productivity can be measured accurately.

Features and Benefits of OEE Software:

The OEE Software has several features that can benefit the user in many ways to grow their business. Some of these include:

• Tools can be provided to understand and address the underlying manufacturing losses such as down time, speed loss, and rejects.
• More accurate measurements of OEE and the underlying factors of Availability, Performance, and Quality can be achieved by automating data capture.
• Your team can be provided with real time loss information so that the losses during the shift can be addressed in time to change the outcome of that shift.
• The underlying losses can be focused or the operators can be provided with a takt-based shift target.
• There are two types of comparative benchmarks which is space-based and time-based that can be done by the software. Multiple assets within the same time frame can be compared with space-based benchmarks.
• OEE can be compared across different divisions, sites, assets or products.
• A single asset can be compared to itself over time with time-based, which is the preferred form of OEE benchmark.
• OEE can be used as a tool for improvement by trending OEE over time for a given asset or product.
• Dimensional analysis, such as by part, team, and shift are much more easy with OEE software where a much deeper understanding of your OEE data can be provided.
• Total Effective Equipment Performance is a closely related metric to OEE, where insights on the true capacity of your manufacturing operation can be provided which is calculated as OEE x Utilization.
• OEE Software can help you increase efficiency and productivity on the plant.
• Unplanned downtime can be eliminated and changes in performance effectiveness can be responded instantly.
• The direct and indirect costs associated with poorly functioning equipment, inferior quality, and excess waste can be reduced.
• As the real time shop floor data flows automatically from the IQMS MES and modules into a simple, intuitive presentation of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) factors, the key personnel can have the data to take action and respond instantly to fluctuations in machine availability, performance and quality.
• As plant-wide and enterprise-wide visibility of OEE factors can be provided, you can decide what you want to see
• Real time alerts can be sent as email, on-screen notification, text alert or voice announcements.
• All calculations in OEE can be automatically captured and stored for future analysis. So there is no manual intervention.
• The charts and graphs of OEE are dynamically updated with performance and quality data in real time.
• The genertaed reports can be displayed instantly on the screen, sent directly to a printer, saved to a file, sent through email or can also be delivered to a mobile device.
• You can either use existing built in OEE KPIs or easily create customized performance indicators by Intelligence Dashboards.
• Current shift OEE can be cpmpared with previous runs OEE percentages, by job, work center, shift or day.
• Efficiency and downtime can be tracked at an enterprise level, specific manufacturing cell or work center, with traceability down to an item number and revision of the manufactured part.
• Real time tracking of product and process quality can be enbled to facilitate continuous improvement efforts by automatic updates to Statistical Process Control (SPC) module.
