Operational Challenges We Help Solve
Machine status is checked manually or discovered too late.
Downtime reasons are incomplete, inconsistent or entered after the event.
Utilisation, speed loss and micro-stoppages are difficult to quantify.
Managers see OEE numbers but cannot trace the underlying causes or actions.
[UTECH’S APPROACH]
Connected Intelligence Built Around Your Operation
Utech machine monitoring combines equipment signals, contextual operator input and production data to create a live view of availability, performance and quality. Instead of treating OEE as a retrospective report, teams can use it to respond to losses during the shift.

[FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS]
Frequently Asked Questions
Learn how a machine monitoring system supports Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) tracking, machine health monitoring, and data-driven production improvements.
What data is needed to calculate OEE?
OEE typically uses planned production time, runtime, ideal or target production rate, total output, and good output. A machine monitoring system collects and analyses these metrics to measure equipment effectiveness, while the calculation model should reflect the specific operating process.
Can downtime reasons be captured without excessive data entry?
Yes. A machine monitoring system can use automatic machine state detection alongside a short, prioritised workflow for recording downtime reasons that require human input. This approach supports efficient machine health monitoring while reducing manual data entry.
Can OEE be compared across different machine types?
Yes. OEE can be compared across different machine types when production definitions, planned operating time, performance standards, and data quality are managed consistently. A machine monitoring system helps provide reliable performance insights, while machine health monitoring adds context to equipment conditions and production losses.
