If you reduce the losses
Every second is measured against the ideal cycle
Every second of planned production time that doesn’t become a good part is assigned to one of three losses. In parts, a loss is the number of good parts the ideal cycle could have produced in that time.
What is OEE and how is it calculated?Time the line is stopped
Unplanned stops and setup per shift × shifts × days. Planned breaks are not part of this loss; they are deducted from planned production time up front.
Gap between actual and ideal cycle
Run time − parts produced × ideal cycle time. Minor stops and slow running show up here.
Time spent making scrap
Scrap parts × ideal cycle time. In both views, the material lost in scrap is also added to this loss.
Two views
If demand exceeds capacity, the loss is the contribution margin on parts you could not sell (price − material). If demand is met, the loss is the cost of idle line hours.
Results are an estimate based on the values you enter. Once losses, downtime reasons and cycle times are collected from the machines, the real picture usually differs from the estimate; İldiko MES measures this data live for every line.
Let’s talk about measured loss, not estimates
We collect downtime, speed and scrap data from the machines on one of your lines and, within a few weeks, show you together where the loss is.
