Abstract

One of the most important indicators for increasing productivity is OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness). To analyze the OEE indicator, some typical performance rates have been established: quality rate, availability rate of equipment for manufacturing, and performance rate. The paper presents computing methods for establishing and improving the indicators, which reflect the actual production process, in comparison with the reference indicators. Generally, the research revealed about 65% for OEE in the Romanian automotive high-precision parts industry, smaller than the standard OEE value for the optimum manufacturing process, which is between 85-90%.
