Efficiency is at the core of every 21st-century production operation, and if it isn’t, it should be. Improving the efficiency of your equipment and personnel is the easiest way to get more out of what you already have, and we’d like to help you. For precisely that reason, we’ve created a tutorial manual for improving operational efficiency.

The tutorial topics explored in this manual consider equipment and personnel efficiency evaluation. We describe the importance and value of a monitoring system, its functions and capabilities, as well as its reporting and the resulting effects on your business.

Analyzing operational underperformance, where we explore the importance of understanding your equipment load ratio (ELR), downtimes and delays, machine operator performance, and their potential effects on your production output. Identifying problem areas is half the battle won, and addressing them might not require additional investment but rather a change in operational processes.

A six-step analysis of your overall production efficiency so you can understand why some aspects of your operation need attention and how to address them. This allows you to concentrate on those elements of your production that need improvement, allowing you to predetermine estimations regarding investment cost vs. return.  

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), how to calculate the effectiveness and efficiency of your equipment, reporting on these principles, interpreting, and implementing improvements based on created reports.

Efficiency and effectiveness are holistic concepts that need to be considered throughout the entire production process and all the elements of business that interact with and affect those processes. 

This tutorial manual gives you a holistic approach to understanding, determining, and exploiting operational efficiency in your operation, and it’s yours for free.
