Design And Implementation Of An Overall Equipment Effectiveness Computation Application

The constant searches for performance in companies push their leaders to adopt aprogressive approach to improve the representative indicators of productivity. Thequestion is how a production company can reduce the downtime of its equipment orincrease productivity without investing in new equipment that could cost him afortune? In fact, managers often overlook the real potential of their production tools.Therefore, when production problems arise, they tend to undermine the capacity oftheir production tools and invest in new resources. But in fact, instead of engagingin research of news production resources, it will be better now to find the rightapproach (or method) to address the concerns of performance. In most cases, theseproblems are not as difficult to solve as you think it. The company is really winningif it can increase production without investing in additional resources. To do so, itseeks to achieve maximum production capacity by minimizing losses of any naturewhatsoever. The expected gain therefore requires the removal losses. The overallanalysis is a necessary approach to find all the causes of production losses. Maintask of the thesis is to design and implement an application for computing overallequipment effectiveness (OEE). It involves calculating the ratio between thequantity of products manufactured goods (i.e. marketable) and the amount ofproduct right the first time we could have made under ideal conditions. Thismaximum ratio is called the overall equipment effectiveness of return. The thesisdescribes the real concept of OEE firstly, then, it discusses the process of designand implementation of the overall equipment effectiveness computing systemdetailly, and the application and testing of the system are introduced as well.
