Lean Tool – OEE

Start entering the world of Industry 4.0

What is XL

XL is a new breed of device known as a Productivity Appliance™. It snaps on to your existing processes and immediately delivers real-time performance data to all levels of your company. A web-based interface means no software to install. and, it adds value to all levels of your company: Strategic, Tactical, and Operational.

Strategic – Analytics

Managers need accurate and timely information to make confident decisions. XL Analytics provides a complete and accurate picture of plant floor performance, with historical depth and perspective.

Down time analytics expose the top reasons for lost productivity. Trend lines provide historical context. It’s the foundation for improvement strategies.

Get ready. You’re about to see your true downtime. Every stop. Every second. Every detail. It’s exciting and it’s intimidating, all at the same time.

Most companies are shocked to discover their true downtime. Even if you don’t know it, it’s still there. and once production time is lost — it’s lost forever.

The Total Production Timeline™ provides a snapshot of performance. Zoom in on problem areas and zoom out for the bigger picture.

Green means running. Red means down. Blue means setup. Yellow means standby. Grey shows shifts (top) and jobs (bottom). Simple. Elegant.

One of the simplest and most effective techniques for improving OEE is to focus on the top losses.
