How to control manufacturing efficiency

In the manufacturing environment, efficiency and predictability of the process is key to guaranteeing the production plan and optimizing the manufacturing cost of the final product. There are several methods and metrics that have been developed over the years to track different factors that influence the process, such as cycle time and critical performance parameters. These parameters are used to detect any deviation of the process performance as soon as possible to guarantee a reliable performance. The Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) is a metric that integrates the tracking and control of the entire end-to-end manufacturing process, enabling the quick detection of any deviation that appears in any point of the process.
