The solution to improve the TRS of a machine is therefore to reduce its losses as much as possible to increase its efficiency. It is obviously necessary to start by calculating the TRS in detail, by noting, either automatically or manually, all the data necessary for its calculation. Once the data has been recorded, it is then necessary to visualize them as a whole to identify the source of the losses and downtime of the production unit, the main causes of a low OEE. Several solutions exist to improve your OEE, which must of course be chosen according to the sources identified. In general, OEE improvement solutions consist of improving the management of the production unit, whether in terms of management, maintenance, order tracking or inventory management.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use TPM to get a higher OEE<\/strong><br \/>\nTotal Productive Maintenance (TPM), or total productive maintenance in French, is a Japanese method that includes various maintenance solutions. TPM aims to increase machine performance by offering a proactive approach to eliminating the six main causes of malfunction :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Failures<\/li>\n<li>Settings and commissioning<\/li>\n<li>Waits, empty runs and micro-stops<\/li>\n<li>The loss of speed of the production line<\/li>\n<li>Startup failures<\/li>\n<li>Production defects and rejections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Identifying these sources of failure and eliminating them, allows a drastic reduction of unplanned downtime of the production line and consequently an improvement of the OEE.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Improving OEE using the SMED method<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Single Minute Exchange of Dies method, or rapid tool change in French, was developed with the aim of reducing the time for changeovers. This other Japanese method proposes to produce smaller batches to adapt more easily to changing customer demand. The SMED method thus makes it possible to reduce the changeover time necessary between two production periods , and therefore to reduce the downtime of the machines.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opt for industry 4.0 to obtain a better OEE<\/strong><br \/>\nWith a market that is pushing for ever greater efficiency, the digital transition of companies is a medium-term imperative. Industry 4.0 relies on more connected machines and on automated data collection and archiving. Digitization of processes that makes OEE per machine easier to calculate . Micro-stops and breakdowns are detected and analyzed more precisely. In addition, thanks to data logging and traceability, the causes of these shutdowns are easily identified, in particular through the use of a digital twin to replay pre-failure scenarios.. It is precisely in order to improve the TRS that TopSolid&#8217;CamSimul includes a digital twin functionality, which makes it possible to reduce offline focusing. The automatic calculation of the TRS relieves the teams responsible for this task. Human interventions are kept to a minimum, reducing the risk of fraud and transcription errors. The TRS is generated automatically and can be consulted in real time by supervisors and analysts. World leader in CAD\/CAM\/ERP\/PDM software publishing , TOPSOLID has created the Integrated Digital Factory. An integrated software suite for mechanical industries, building industries and digital engineering that marks TopSolid&#8217;s commitment to Industry 4.0. A 100% French product, TopSolid is the only solution that integrates both CAD\/CAM and ERP. With a presence throughout France and a global network, choosing TopSolid is the guarantee of a close relationship coupled with nearly 40 years of expertise!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Companies can discover the potential for optimizing their production chain thanks to key performance indices, the famous KPIs.\u00a0Among these indicators, the Overall Rate of Return contributes to give a complex and general measurement of the health of the factory or the production line.\u00a0Indeed,\u00a0thanks to the TRS the efficiency of the system is measurable, comparable and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12140,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12138","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12138"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12138\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12139,"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12138\/revisions\/12139"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12140"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12138"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mfgtechupdate.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
