OEE Monitoring for Production Processes Based on SCADA/HMI Platform

This article aims to show the problem of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) monitoring and performance measurement on a case study done in a small company. Losses occur during the production process and the ways of detecting them must be analyzed. The methodology for calculating total Overall Equipment Effectiveness is followed while applying monitoring tools. Some existing methods used for production control, the flow of material and production facilities control and monitoring, and the methods used for maintenance control are demonstrated as examples regarding data acquisition, collecting idle time or occurred accidents. The tools and methods implemented for maintenance control can vary depending on, among other areas, the operational conditions, but when visualization application can be designed for monitored technological process on the SCADA/HMI platform, the implementation can be described as shown in this article.
