I am an industrial engineering supervisor. I work for an automotive sensors, solenoids, and switches supplier for the automotive market. We are 53rd out of the 150 top suppliers.
I have some questions for you regarding OEE implementation and software:
Collect Data for OEE
Q1: Data collection can be a problem (Garbage in Garbage out) and the best of software solutions can fail for lack of complete and accurate data. Production people see any form to collect data as a hassle. How does OEE address this?
Arno Koch • Instead of adding an extra hurdle, lets find a way to reduce the operators burden, by gathering ONLY the data that is at the bottom line necessary. Normally the operator collects a lot of data that is not leading in any way to improvement. By eliminating such registrations it should be a relieve to the operator.
OEE is a real Operator tool that should help him or hear to do the job with fewer problems. It goes a little to far here, but the book “OEE for the production team” tells all about it. In one of the workshops in Vegas September 99, I explained how to collect data for OEE in an effective way.
How to use your OEE for Continuous Improvement
Most OEE implementations do NOT lead to fundamental improvement! And yet, most machines can produce twice the current capacity at lower cost! How? that is the subject in our courses! click here to learn more!
