Wat is Overall Equipment Effectiveness?

What does Overall Equipment Effectiveness mean?

Overall Equipment Effectivenes meaning

The Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a common Key Performance Indicator (KPI) in industry, used for measuring output relative to the potential capacity of production activities. It is a way of calculating the efficiency of “the equipment,” i.e. your assets (equipment, machines) but also people.

Overall Equipment Effectiveness is defined as the actual amount of products produced that meet specifications, compared to the theoretically achievable amount over a specified period of time, expressed as a percentage. This measure is applicable to any individual asset or process, as well as entire production lines.

Availability * Performance * Quality

How can you calculate Overall Equipment Effectiveness?

Overall Equipment Effectiveness reflects actual production efficiency relative to maximum potential production and is calculated by multiplying Availability (time), Performance (speed) and Quality (good numbers). Availability (or availability) measures the actual production time relative to the planned time, Performance (or performance/efficiency) measures the rate of utilization of the equipment, and Quality (or quality) indicates the percentage of output that is good quality. The formula is as follows:

OEE = Availability x Performance x Quality

We help you achieve high OEE

The higher the Overall Equipment Effectiveness score, the fewer losses you have. So having a high score is the key to a successful business. OEE-software not only gives you a good insight into what needs to be improved, it also helps you very concretely address these pain points to eliminate unnecessary losses. This way, you already achieve a major production improvement in a short period of time. Combine OEE Overall Equipment Effectiveness with a CMMS-system for optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Let's take a closer look at some frequently asked questions.

How can you calculate Overall Equipment Effectiveness?

Overall Equipment Effectiveness is determined by multiplying availability (or availability), performance (or performance/efficiency) and quality (or quality). It is calculated as follows: B/A x D/C x F/E, where;

B = the actual production time
A = the planned production time
D = the actual production quantity
C = the theoretical production quantity
F = the good products (excluding rejects)
E = the total production (including rejects)

Is het Overall equipment effectiveness of Overall equipment efficiency?

Is it wrong to call OEE 'Overall Equipment Efficiency'? It is fundamentally wrong to call OEE 'Overall Equipment Efficiency', because efficiency relates to the input side of the process, while effectiveness (which OEE measures) relates to the output side.

What is the difference between OEE and OAE?

OEE and OAE are both performance indicators in production, but they measure different aspects:

OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness): Focuses on the efficiency of the equipment, measured in terms of availability, performance, and quality. It compares the actual output with the maximum theoretical output.

OAE (Overall Asset Effectiveness): The Overall Asset Effectiveness (OAE) indicator is based on the OEE method. However, it is broader than OEE, as it assesses the effectiveness of all assets, including people, materials, and systems, in the production process. It includes, for example, personnel efficiency, raw material consumption, and system performance.
