2. Is the average OEE of an average machine between 35-45%?

Q: Average OEE: You mention within your site the OEE of an average machine is between 35 and 45%. What data is this figure based upon?

Arno Koch •  My estimate of hat is an average OEE is based on my analyses of more than 1000 machines in all kind of processes and environments. I tried to set the definitions as close as possible to the OEE Industry Standard in order to eliminate large deviations based on differences in definitions. However; please ONLY use this as a ‘Rule of Thumb’. As I have to keep saying: it does not makes sense to compare OEE numbers. The only reason I mention those numbers is to make you aware that there might be a huge improvement potential in your factories that you might not have discovered yet!
