the system can run
Step1: Plant identification
Key Point: The plant items to be monitored ( we call these assets ) from which key
manufacturing data is to be automatically gathered
Enabling OEE Data Collection
A network of servers, PCs and PLCs provide a reliable backbone on which the
system can run
Step 2: Plant Connection
Key Point: A suitable method of plant connection is identified and implemented.
Where existing plant automation and connection to that is possible a direct link is
made.
Where no suitable automation exist data collection terminals will be installed through
which data can be collected
Data Collection
A network of servers, PCs and PLCs provide a reliable backbone on which the
system can run

What our Customers say……
"The product is amazing. It has changed our culture enormously on the
shop-floor and we have full visibility of opportunities. Gemba have
people who know OEE and all the difficulties in ensuring the metric is
right for you.“ Lee Riley, PPG
The software makes it easy to spot problem areas quickly, and it offers
huge value in ensuring that key decisions are taken based on factual
data.” John Joyce, Gripple
"Since we have worked with Gemba I have found their working
knowledge of lean and improvement activities enable us to harness tools
and techniques outside of our normal working parameters to improve our
business. This completes the Gemba model into a world class product
and service." Tom Spragg, Barfoots of Botley
“We almost doubled our OEE in the first 6 weeks, and as a result have
almost doubled our output on those assets. I am very happy with the
system.” John van der Voorn, Walraven BV
