Industry 4.0 & OEE Optimization

OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is the key industrial metric used to measure the overall efficiency of a production asset by comparing its actual output to its maximum theoretical output, while accounting for losses in availability, performance, and quality.
An OEE of 100% means the machine is operating perfectly — with no downtime, at maximum speed, and producing only good-quality parts. It is calculated by multiplying these three factors together and helps organizations identify the root causes of underperformance and optimize their production.

Availability

Availability takes into account Unplanned and Planned Stops. An Availability score of 100% means the process is always running during Planned Production Time.

Performance

Performance takes into account Slow Cycles and Small Stops. A Performance score of 100% means when the process is running it is running as fast as possible.

Quality

Quality takes into account Defects (including parts that need Rework). A Quality score of 100% means there are no Defects (only Good Parts are being produced).

Industry 4.0 is key to improve OEE since provides valuable automated data that can be used to improve operations to the next level of performance

Predictive Maintenance

Using IoT sensors and machine learning algorithms, Industry 4.0 enables predictive maintenance, allowing organizations to detect and prevent equipment failures before they occur, reducing downtime and improving availability.
