OVERALL EQUIPMENT EFFECTIVENESS (OEE) CALCULATION
Manufacturing Measurement and Data Visualization
The manufacturing world is changing. It is speeding up with expectations for efficiency that are higher than ever. In the world of carton packaging manufacturing, companies are faced with this and several other aspects including inventory management, product tracking, real-time data visualization, and work in progress traceability.
Often, production teams can be overwhelmed with data and management of it. Still, the more information you have better your business can run. Efficiency is the name of the game here. How many good products can you make and how effectively are you using your current labor, equipment, and planning materials? CartonERP Work in Process Tracking is an exceptional solution to assist with OEE in your facility.
Workpack Solutions provides more transparency to your manufacturing process, performance, machine optimization, and production quality, giving you visibility on how best to optimize and maximize productivity. Efficiency is a huge competitive advantage. Focusing on Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) we can look at how this data can give you accurate measures on:
Efficiency
Monitor run time along with shift changes, breakdowns, and overall production counts of cartons.
Visibility
Count pieces and compare count output with available capacity, charting speed, time, and quality.
Quality
Monitor overall production counts for good and bad product, and quarantine suspect finished goods. Separate make-ready waste counts from good run counts then stores data for analytics and reporting.
While these data points are available from other separate sources, having all of this data contextually available to management and production staff via computer or mobile device at any time allows for immediate correction. CartonERP can illuminate problems that exist in a manufacturing process, whether it is material, equipment, or staff-related.
For nearly six decades, the manufacturing industry has strived for continuous improvement in production output and quality. OEE has been the map guiding this.
In an information age fixated on automation and optimization, Workpack Solutions a cost-effective solution. Ensure your carton production facility is able to monitor, measure and respond to all work in progress, improving OEE with this innovative new solution.
