About Fabrico. Fabrico is computer-vision-verified OEE plus closed-loop maintenance execution. Cameras catch what sensors miss, the CMMS closes the loop with work orders and action. Available standalone or unified as one platform.
To see Fabrico in your production environment, book a demo.
The OEE formula is OEE = Availability multiplied by Performance multiplied by Quality. Availability is run time divided by planned production time, Performance is actual output divided by the theoretical maximum output, and Quality is good units divided by total units produced. The result is expressed as a percentage.
Suppose a shift has 400 planned minutes with 40 minutes of stops (Availability = 360/400 = 90%), runs at 95% of ideal speed (Performance = 95%), and produces 98% good parts (Quality = 98%). OEE = 0.90 multiplied by 0.95 multiplied by 0.98, which is about 84%.
OEE measures effectiveness during planned production time, while TEEP, total effective equipment performance, measures against all available time, including unscheduled hours. TEEP shows the true capacity potential of an asset, whereas OEE focuses on how well scheduled production time is used.
