Motivational Idhammar OEE Andon Displays

By clearly and continuously indicating availability and performance against key metrics, Idhammar Andon and Idhammar Business Alerts modules enable manufacturing and maintenance managers to take greater control of the daily management of plant assets.

The Idhammar OEE Andon Display software delivers real-time intelligence on the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of a plant, allowing decision makers to proactively track, monitor and respond to plant failures and process issues. Placed at the end of the production line, Andon Boards provide line-specific KPIs for use by the line improvement teams. The displays automatically refresh content and check to see if alert conditions have been met. If an exception arises, a Business Alert is triggered which can be communicated privately, publicly or to a user defined group of people via e-mail or text. Each alert can be scheduled to notify different levels of management as appropriate to the severity.

Clear, accurate and real-time reporting provides clear evidence of loss and makes action unavoidable. As well as accelerating engineering response time to failure and improving the visibility of the maintenance team, OEE Dashboards, Andon Displays and Business Alerts have a proven motivational effect on teamwork and support cross-functional communication. Keeping everyone in the loop provides a sense of control and keeps all teams close to, and involved in the task at hand – making every second of operation count.
