Operational Optimisation

Dashboard visualising plant-level OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) metrics with insights into availability, performance, quality, and production data for multiple production plants.

EdgeMethods OEE AI Solution

Optimise Performance, Reduce Downtime, and Drive Productivity

In today’s rapidly evolving manufacturing environment, achieving Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a key driver of competitive advantage. EdgeMethods OEE AI takes traditional OEE metrics to the next level with AI-powered analytics, Machine Learning, and real-time insights to identify, resolve, and prevent inefficiencies across Availability, Performance, and Quality—the three pillars of OEE—while driving data-driven, actionable improvement opportunities.

Our solution enables manufacturers to:

  • Maximise equipment availability by minimising downtime and unplanned losses to keep operations running smoothly.
  • Enhance performance through automated cycle time calculations and uncover optimisation opportunities with actionable insights.
  • Improve quality by detecting the quality performance deviations and implementing proactive maintenance strategies to maintain high standards. 

How It Works

  • Automated Ideal Cycle Times
    AI automates the calculation of optimal cycle times for manufacturing processes, comparing actual vs. ideal times to highlight inefficiencies.
  • Unplanned Loss Automation
    Identifies downtime causes and automates notifications to operators, reducing unplanned losses.
  • Event Detection and Prediction
    Uses ML algorithms to detect the causes of downtime and defects, providing operators with real-time insights and predictive maintenance alerts.
  • Direct Causal Analysis
    Maps cascading losses caused by operational inefficiencies, enabling targeted interventions to address root causes.
  • Short Interval Control (SIC)
    Provides real-time feedback at regular intervals, allowing operators to make immediate adjustments to maintain optimal efficiency and product quality.

Introducing Asset OEE
