The Top 5 OEE Trends for 2020

 2020 is just starting and looks like a great year for OEE. 2019 saw some great trends taking root for OEE, and 2020 looks to continue that trajectory. The OEE trends for 2020 are starting strong with OEE and OPE, Machine Health, and the increased spread of IIoT, Smart Manufacturing, and Cyber-Physical Systems.

Let's take a deeper look into just how these rising trends in manufacturing will reshape and enhance the OEE landscape.


OEE and OPE

As 2020 comes around, OEE has been incorporated into the growing landscape of performance analysis. OEE has become a part of the emerging analytical framework of OPE, or Overall Production Effectiveness.

This analysis takes OEE and adds an additional layer to it. OPE uses OEE and also analyzes data from personnel as well. This poises OEE as a foundational technology for the coming year and the changing analytical tools.


OEE and Machine Health

Measuring machine health is the future of manufacturing and is expected to rise in 2020. Machine health measurements analyze the wear and tear naturally occurring in manufacturing equipment. This preemptive study attempts to estimate repairs ahead of time to streamline manufacturing downtime. OEE naturally folds into machine health. Minimizing downtime with OEE threads naturally into machine health.


IIoT

IIoT was supposed to be 2019's big change-up, but the rollout was slower than expected. IIoT relies on massive infrastructure changes for manufacturing. These changes involved updating both existing machinery and the software that runs them. As 2020 unwinds, IIoT might actually be poised to make the changes that many analysts hoped it would in 2019. IIoT will provide OEE with more data and access to, industrial machinery. This opens the door for OEE to have more impact on the industry.
