Overall Equipment Effectiveness Simplified - Analyzing OEE to find the Improvement Opportunities #729419

Boost Manufacturing Performance by Mastering OEE
Is your equipment running at peak efficiency—or costing you money in hidden losses?
In Overall Equipment Effectiveness Simplified, you'll learn how to uncover and eliminate the hidden inefficiencies in your production line using one of the most powerful metrics in manufacturing: OEE.
This hands-on guide will help you:

• Understand the 3 core pillars: Availability, Performance, and Quality
• Diagnose problems using Six Big Losses
• Link OEE to Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) and Lean initiatives
• Discover real-world improvement opportunities—fast

Whether you're a production manager, process engineer, or continuous improvement leader, this book gives you the tools to stop guesswork and start data-driven improvement.
More about this Book:
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE): A measurement of total productive maintenance (TPM) that quantifies how efficiently equipment is used. OEE is derived from three factors:

• Availability rate: calculates the percentage of scheduled time lost due to equipment breakdowns and changeovers
• Performance rate: measures operating speed losses—running slower than the design speed and brief stops
• Quality rate: calculates the percentage of parts lost to scrap and rework

OEE is calculated by multiplying these three components, and each one presents numerous improvement opportunities. The six primary losses—failures, modifications, small stoppages, lower operating speeds, and scrap—are often the focus of OEE, but some businesses also include other significant measures they deem important.
