OEE Software
 About ShopFloorReporting.Com
ShopFloorReporting.com provides highly configurable manufacturing software and manufacturing execution systems (MES) for the shop floor. We also provide ERP class software for manufacturing enterprise management. Our industrial software is browser based thin client .net technology which makes management of MRP, MES and ERP funcions easy and quick even accross a large enterprise. We provide an open source to customers that are interested in managing their MES and ERP software internally.
What is OEE software?
OEE, or overall equipment effectiveness, is a calculation used by manufacturers to understand and improve inefficiencies in their manufacturing processes. The calculation is composed of three factors, as follows:
OEE = Availability x Performance x Quality
OEE is part of the lean manufacturing philosophy. It's objectives are to continuously improve operating margins, optimize competitve position and maximize the use of capital.
OEE analysis starts with plant operating time, or the amount of time a plant is open and available for operation. From plant operating time, subtract planned shut down, which includes any events that should be excluded from efficiency analysis. (Events such as breaks, scheduled maintenance, or periods when there is nothing to produce). The remaining time is your planned production time.

OEE begins with planned production time and scrutinizes efficiency and productivity losses that occur, with the goal of reducing or eliminating these losses. There are three categories of loss to consider - downtime, speed loss and quality loss. OEE software allows for the collection and presentation of OEE data.

Availability
Availability takes into account downtime. Examples of downtime include equipment failures, material shortages, and changeover time. Changeover time is considered a form of down time. It may not be possible to eliminate changeover time, but in many cases it can be reduced. The remaining available time is called operating time.
Performance
Performance takes into account speed loss, which includes any factors that cause the process to operate at less than the maximum possible speed, while running. Examples include machine wear, substandard materials, misfeeds, and operator inefficiency. The remaining available time is called net operating time.
Quality
Quality takes into account quality losses, which account for produced pieces that do not meet quality standards, including pieces that may be reworked. The remaining time is called fully productive time. The goal is to maximize fully productive time.

Collecting the data for OEE software
Quality is the ratio of fully productive time to net operating time (fully productive time is net operating time less quality loss). This is calculated as the ratio of good pieces to total pieces. 100% quality means there have been no reject or rework pieces.
To give an example, if all three factors were at 95.0%, the OEE would be 85.7%
Availability is the ratio of operating time to planned production time (operating time is planned production time less down time loss). 100% availability means the process has been running without any recorded stops.
Performance is the ratio of net operating time to operating time (net operating time is operating time less speed loss). This is calculated as the ratio of ideal cycle time to actual cycle time, or alternately the ratio of actual run rate to ideal run rate.
100% performance means that the process has been consistently running at its theoretical maximum speed.
Software Technology
Our software is based on Microsoft .net thin client architecture.
We have also developed a framework that allows us to rapidly configure our entry screens and reports.
This allows us to provide mission specific interfaces at any level of your enterprise.
We can give your proactive teams the tools they want and need to compete and win.
OEE Software benefits include
- IT software support requirements are reduced
- hardware/servers reduced and can be centralized
- We provide intuitive user entry and reporting
- Intuitive interfaces = less training
- Total cost of ownership is far less than our competitors
- Systems can be rapidly and affordably updated as business opportunities arise
- Your ability to respond to future opportunities increases
