Abstract

This article discusses how to improve the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) of the chicken bowl printing machine. OEE is important to measure machine performance in the production process. OEE will affect the costs incurred during production activities, such as product defects, how effective the performance of machines is, and how much time is available for production. The failure-tags analysis was used to identify the category factors causing engine failure. The why-why analysis was used to identify the root cause of the problem, and the theory of change was used to explain what should be implemented by the company to improve the OEE value. In 2020, only December had a value above standard by 95%, based on the Seiichi Nakajima OEE has a good value if the value >85%. The OEE values From January to May were fell from 73% to 34% and then kept increasing to 73% in November. The increase of the OEE value can be achieved by implementing a communication schedule, monitoring and evaluating the performance of maintenance staff to achieve a fast maintenance machine process, and applying maintenance rules and guidelines.
