Pharmaceutical packaging often involves multiple steps and stringent quality control measures, making it trickier to achieve high OEE compared to simpler processes.
Frequent product changeovers can significantly impact OEE due to setupt times and adjustments
Machine availability
Identify the reasons for machine stops due to scheduled down times
Resasons selectable from the OEE dialog at the machine operation terminal
Visualization and overview of the down time reasons
Data is recorded by the machine control
Regularly scheduled maintenance helps prevent unexpected equipment failures and production stoppages
Implementing automated equipment can reduce downtime associated with manual operations and improve constistency
Analyzing the components of OEE (availability, performance, quality), manufacturers can pinpoint areas causing production showdowns or waste
Permanent measurement, recording and visualization of machine status
Transparency about stop reasons and product ejections
Measurement of the machine efficiency
Increased machine efficiency
Single metric to compare the effectiveness of different packaging lines or assess changes made to optimize a line
Services, which include OEE consultancy, data analysis and improvement strategies
User-friendly software
Most commonly used non-financial measurement tool on packaging lines
