OEE, computed by the machines themselves.
Most plants calculate OEE once a month, from a spreadsheet, two weeks late. MachineWise reads the signals your machines already produce and computes Availability × Performance × Quality live, with every stop timestamped and every loss attributed.
Manual OEE tracking is always late and always generous.
The report that arrives after the month
Monthly OEE describes a month nobody can change any more. Too late to fix anything, too aggregated to point at anything.
Whose number is right?
Production says 78%, planning says 61%. When OEE comes from machine signals there is one number, and it is nobody's opinion.
Averages bury the worst machine
A plant-level 65% hides the machine at 31%. Machine, shift and part-level OEE shows where the loss actually lives.
Your OEE, and what the losses are worth.
Move the sliders for one real shift. The waterfall shows where the planned minutes went, and what they cost at your machine hour rate.
More parts than the ideal cycle allows in the run time. The ideal cycle time is set too slow, which is the most common reason a manual OEE goes above 100%.
Biggest loss on this shift: —. That is where the first fix goes.
Every loss has a place. MachineWise captures each one automatically.
The classic loss tree, and how each loss gets into the numbers without anyone writing it down. The full explanation is in the six big losses.
Breakdowns
Unplanned stops from failures.
Setup and changeover
Time from last good part to first good part.
Minor stops
Short stops too brief for anyone to log.
Reduced speed
Running slower than the ideal cycle.
Startup rejects
Scrap while the process stabilises.
Production rejects
Scrap and rework in steady running.
From the boardroom number to the reason, in four clicks.
A plant average tells you something is wrong. The drill-down tells you what, where, when and why.
The number the director sees
Machining cell B drags it down
VMC-07 is the outlier
Night shift, three days running
The fix is in stores, not maintenance
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
Which OEE are we talking about?
Two definitions circulate in Indian plants. MachineWise computes both and labels them, so nobody quotes one while the customer means the other.
The definition to quote externally
Requires a maintained ideal cycle time for every part. The right figure for customer audits and benchmarks. Full reference: ISO 22400-2 definitions.
What a machine can answer without standards
Needs no ideal cycle time, so it works on short and mixed batches from day one. It is never presented as the ISO figure or compared with ISO-based benchmarks.
From machine signal to a number you can act on.
Connect
Native drivers for CNCs and PLCs, gateways for machines with nothing to read. Under an hour per machine.
Classify
Every second becomes running, idle, setup or breakdown, automatically.
Explain
Operators tag stop reasons at the machine in two taps; rejects are logged at source.
Compute
A × P × Q per machine, shift, part and operator, to ISO 22400-2 and the disclosed variant.
Act
Paretos, TV walls and WhatsApp shift summaries put the biggest loss in front of the right person.
