Your Data: Use it or Lose It

摘要

Managing overall equipment effectiveness maximizes machine use, profitability. Data matters. Whether it's a production manufacturing operation or a job shop, measuring the effectiveness of each piece of shop floor equipment using overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) software and data collection tools enables companies to collect data in real time. But it's not enough just to collect data; it must be used to make positive change to operational activity. By examining both real-time and historical data, manufacturers can make changes to the manufacturing process to optimize efficiency. This leads to a reduction in overall costs.
