How can I increase efficiency?

The biggest losses in manufacturing.

There are six main causes of inefficiency in manufacturing. These losses are crucial for identifying improvement potential and increasing productivity.

1

Breakdowns

Losses due to equipment failures, such as tool breakage or machine damage, leading to unplanned downtime.

2

Setup Times

Time lost due to setup, changeover or adjustment operations.

3

Microstops

Small, frequent pauses that typically last less than five minutes and do not require maintenance.

4

Reduced Speed

When a machine runs at a lower speed than its maximum possible or target speed.

5

Scrap & Rework

Losses due to defective products that need to be reworked or disposed of.

6

Startup Losses

Production losses that occur when starting up a machine or at the beginning of a shift.

Overall Equipment Effectiveness

Overall Equipment Effectiveness, or OEE, is a key metric for measuring productivity. It quantifies losses throughout production time.

  • Planned Downtime – Breaks, maintenance or planned downtime.
  • Availability Loss – Unplanned downtime or setup times.
  • Performance Loss – Reduced speed or short stops.
  • Quality Loss – Scrap or rework.
Real-time OEE tracking enables quick response to inefficiencies and continuous improvement.
