The Efficiency Equation

Why OEE is typically the second step on the road to efficiency for bottling and packaging plants

It is generally acknowledged that the first step towards plant efficiency is to do the practical things, typically instigated by lean six sigma consultants. OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is most effective when it is used to support, reinforce and further improve on this first step. However, there is sometimes a lack of understanding about its operation, objectives and outcomes, both generically and in an application specific context. Here, Richard Stone, General Manager of EmsPT, analyses the potential for the technique to be applied in bottling and filling plants.
