Proven Results

Every Percentage Point of OEE Is Worth Millions

OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) measures how well your manufacturing equipment performs relative to its maximum potential. It combines three factors: Availability (uptime), Performance (speed), and Quality (good parts). An OEE of 70% means you're only getting 70% of your equipment's potential output.

The gap between your current OEE and world-class 85% represents lost revenue you'll never recover. Unless you systematically eliminate the Six Big Losses.

Availability Losses

  • • Equipment Failures
  • • Setup & Changeovers

Performance Losses

  • • Small Stops & Idling
  • • Reduced Speed

Quality Losses

  • • Startup Defects
  • • Production Defects

PrismaWerk delivers precision analytics that identify and eliminate your highest-impact losses. We analyze equipment sensor data, process logs, and production schedules to pinpoint which of the Six Big Losses is bleeding your productivity most—then systematically attack it.

Target Result: 5-point OEE improvement within 90 days. Predictive maintenance that eliminates Equipment Failures. Constraint optimization that fixes Performance bottlenecks. Automated quality control that detects defects and pinpoints the root cause. All using data you're already collecting.

Recognizing the Losses That Kill OEE

If any of these sound familiar, you're leaving millions on the table

Your OEE Is Stuck Below 75%

Your OEE Is Stuck Below 75%

Equipment Failures killing Availability. Micro-stops destroying Performance. Defects bleeding Quality. Every point below world-class 85% is lost revenue you'll never recover.

You Can't See Which Loss Is Costing Most

You Can't See Which Loss Is Costing Most

Is it unplanned downtime? Reduced speed? Setup time? Defects? Without data-driven diagnosis of the Six Big Losses, you're guessing where to improve—and guessing costs millions.

Reactive Maintenance Destroys Availability

Reactive Maintenance Destroys Availability

Equipment failures you could have predicted 7-14 days early. Unplanned downtime costing €50K+ per incident. Your Availability score bleeding while you react instead of prevent.

Hidden Performance Losses Throttle Output

Hidden Performance Losses Throttle Output

Lines running at 80% of nameplate speed. Micro-stoppages stealing 2-3 hours daily. Bottlenecks you can't identify in your dashboards. Your Performance score should be 95%+—not 75%.

Why Production Leaders Choose PrismaWerk

OEE optimization built on TPM methodology and real-world manufacturing expertise

📊

TPM Methodology, Not Just Tech

Availability, Performance, and Quality are dissected using TPM methodology. The system speaks MTBF, MTTR, TEEP, and Six Big Losses—because that's the language of world-class fabs producing €500M+ annually.

🎯

Identify Your Costliest Loss First

Not every OEE loss is equal. The data quantifies which of the Six Big Losses is bleeding productivity most, enabling systematic elimination. Data-driven prioritization replaces guesswork.

90-Day OEE Gains, Not 2-Year Projects

Measurable OEE improvement in 90 days with pilot projects starting at €45K. Prove ROI before scaling across the facility. No multi-year 'digital transformation' limbo.

💰

Results Measured in OEE Points

Success is reported in Availability %, Performance %, and Quality %—not abstract 'model accuracy.' The only metric that matters is OEE improvement. Real client impact: 5-point gain = €2-4M per line.

5-Point OEE Improvement × €2-4M Per Line = ROI You Can Take to the Bank

How We Eliminate the Six Big Losses

Systematic approach to improving Availability, Performance, and Quality

Maximize Availability: Eliminate Equipment Failures

Maximize Availability: Eliminate Equipment Failures

Forecast failures 7-14 days early with predictive maintenance. Sensor data, equipment logs, and process signals combine to eliminate unplanned downtime - the #1 killer of Availability. Turn reactive maintenance into proactive prevention.

Boost Performance: Fix Bottlenecks & Speed Losses

Boost Performance: Fix Bottlenecks & Speed Losses

Constraint-aware optimization identifies hidden bottlenecks, eliminates micro-stoppages, and recovers nameplate speed. Modeling production flows improves Performance scores from 75% to 95%+. Maximize throughput without new equipment.

Improve Quality: Catch Defects at Root Cause

Improve Quality: Catch Defects at Root Cause

ML-based quality control for SEM, AOI, and inline inspection detects systematic defects invisible to traditional SPC. Eliminate startup and production defects that destroy your Quality score. Improve yields while reducing scrap and rework costs.

Real-Time OEE Dashboards & Analytics

Real-Time OEE Dashboards & Analytics

Live visibility into Availability, Performance, and Quality losses. Automated reporting of the Six Big Losses includes drill-down to root cause. Integration with MES/ERP systems and automated root cause summaries that explain why losses happened.

Is This You?

We work with plant managers and operations leaders who are tired of leaving €2M+ on the table

We're a Great Fit If You:

  • Your OEE is stuck at 65-75% when you know it should be 85%+
  • Unplanned downtime costs you €50K+ per incident—and you're tired of reacting
  • You have production data but lack the expertise to turn it into OEE gains
  • Your plant/operations leadership is measured on OEE and needs results
  • You have €45K-€135K budget to pilot a solution that proves ROI first

Not the Right Fit:

  • Your OEE is already 85%+ (call us when you want to hit 90%)
  • You want dashboards and reports, not actual productivity improvement
  • You expect 5-point OEE gains without investing in analytics infrastructure
  • You need staff augmentation, not a results-driven solution partner

If you're in the "Great Fit" column, let's talk.

Every week you wait is another week of lost OEE. Schedule a strategy call to start recovering that lost productivity.
