OEE Calculation
Formula
OEE = Availability x Performance x Quality
Where:
Availability = Run Time / Planned Production Time
Performance = (Total Count x Ideal Cycle Time) / Run Time
Quality = Good Count / Total Count
Example Calculation
Planned Production Time: 480 minutes
Downtime: 50 minutes
Run Time: 430 minutes
Ideal Cycle Time: 0.5 minutes
Total Count: 800 units
Good Count: 780 units
Availability = 430 / 480 = 89.6%
Performance = (800 x 0.5) / 430 = 93.0%
Quality = 780 / 800 = 97.5%
OEE = 89.6% x 93.0% x 97.5% = 81.3%
Six Big Losses
| Loss Category | OEE Factor | Examples | |---------------|------------|----------| | Breakdowns | Availability | Equipment failures | | Setup/Adjustments | Availability | Changeovers, warm-up | | Small Stops | Performance | Jams, minor issues | | Reduced Speed | Performance | Running below ideal rate | | Startup Rejects | Quality | Scrap during start-up | | Production Rejects | Quality | In-process defects |
OEE Benchmarks
| OEE Level | Classification | Typical Range | |-----------|----------------|---------------| | World Class | Best in class | 85%+ | | Good | Above average | 70-85% | | Average | Typical | 60-70% | | Low | Needs improvement | 40-60% | | Poor | Significant issues | <40% |
World-Class Targets
| Factor | World Class | Typical | |--------|-------------|---------| | Availability | >90% | 85% | | Performance | >95% | 90% | | Quality | >99.9% | 98% | | OEE | >85% | 60% |
Loss Analysis Process
