OEE Dashboard

What is meant by OEE Dashboard?

An "OEE Dashboard" is a tool for visualizing and analyzing Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of a production facility or machine. OEE is a key metric in Lean Manufacturing that evaluates the efficiency and performance of the production equipment. The OEE dashboard displays various metrics and performance indicators in real-time to monitor productivity, identify bottlenecks, and support continuous improvement initiatives.

Typical functions of software in the "OEE Dashboard" area are:

1. Real-time OEE Monitoring:

   • Displaying current OEE values for each machine or production line in real-time.
   • Updating data at regular intervals to track the current production status.

2. Detailed OEE Analysis:

   • Breakdown of OEE into its three components: Availability, Performance, and Quality.
   • Displaying causes of production downtime, stoppages, and performance losses.

3. Productivity Comparison:

   • Comparing OEE values across different time periods, shifts, or production lines.
   • Identifying trends and patterns to evaluate productivity trends.

4. Alarms and Notifications:

   • Notifying critical events such as machine downtimes, quality issues, or performance losses.
   • Automated alerting for immediate response and issue resolution.

5. Graphical Visualization:

   • Visualizing OEE data in graphical formats such as charts, dashboards, and heatmaps.
   • Using color coding and symbols for quick identification of bottlenecks and problem areas.
