It is sometimes called Design Cycle Time, Theoretical Cycle Time or Nameplate Capacity.•Quality = Good Pieces / Total Pieces•OEE = Availability x Performance x Quality•OEE Factors in downtime (scheduled and unscheduled), bad quality, and of not running at design rates10Operator Graphics – Building Level (Cell)Operator Graphics - EMsBase GraphicEquipment Module GraphicDischarge Phases:•Discharge Shutdown (all stop)•Discharge Back to Kettle (Recycle)•Discharge through Filter•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 1•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 2•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 1 & 2•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 2 and FilterRecipe StructureA Simplier Breakdown•Original Code was 186 sequential steps, with 6 actions per step•New Code is 9 Equipment modules and 39 total phases–Jacket Temperature–Agitation–External Heat Exchanger–Vessel Pressure Blanketing / Vacuum–Raw Material Feeds–Catalyst Feeds–Atmosphere Inerting–Bottoms Liquid Recirculation / Filtration–Timing and MessagingDischarge Phases (7):•Discharge Shutdown (all stop)•Discharge Back to Kettle (Recycle)•Discharge through Filter•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 1•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 2•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 1 & 2•Discharge through Heat Exchanger 2 and Filter1703-Sep-02 11:33:4606-Apr-03 18:05:1613-Sep-03 07:50:1610-Dec-03 01:37:4620-Feb-04 10:47:0101-Jun-04 21:18:0125-Aug-04 18:24:1606-Nov-04 16:16:0101-Feb-05 05:38:0117-Apr-05 22:46:0105-Jul-05 17:19:3102-Sep-05 07:20:1624-Oct-05 09:14:4612-Dec-05 06:42:4609-Mar-06 02:42:1606-Jun-06 06:27:4627-Aug-06 18:18:1630-Nov-06 10:16:0122-Apr-07 19:36:4620-Oct-07 16:26:4601-Dec-07 18:21:0106-Jan-08 06:33:2115-Feb-08 04:50:2521-Mar-08 06:42:1521-Apr-08 13:58:3528-May-08 10:48:5906-Jul-08 15:09:2022-Aug-08 13:52:0715-Nov-08 07:22:4724-Mar-09 03:47:0916-May-09 16:15:4928-Jun-09 20:56:2621-Aug-09 06:59:3731-Oct-09 05:26:0418-Dec-09 13:55:540.010.020.030.040.050.060.070.0Example Kettle Batch TimesHours1803-Sep-02 11:33:4606-Apr-03 18:05:1613-Sep-03 07:50:1610-Dec-03 01:37:4620-Feb-04 10:47:0101-Jun-04 21:18:0125-Aug-04 18:24:1606-Nov-04 16:16:0101-Feb-05 05:38:0117-Apr-05 22:46:0105-Jul-05 17:19:3102-Sep-05 07:20:1624-Oct-05 09:14:4612-Dec-05 06:42:4609-Mar-06 02:42:1606-Jun-06 06:27:4627-Aug-06 18:18:1630-Nov-06 10:16:0122-Apr-07 19:36:4620-Oct-07 16:26:4601-Dec-07 18:21:0106-Jan-08 06:33:2115-Feb-08 04:50:2521-Mar-08 06:42:1521-Apr-08 13:58:3528-May-08 10:48:5906-Jul-08 15:09:2022-Aug-08 13:52:0715-Nov-08 07:22:4724-Mar-09 03:47:0916-May-09 16:15:4928-Jun-09 20:56:2621-Aug-09 06:59:3731-Oct-09 05:26:0418-Dec-09 13:55:540.010.020.030.040.050.060.070.0Example Kettle Batch TimesHours31.3 Hours24.5 Hours62.8 UCL37.4 UCLHow did we get there?•Okay, so 22% reduction in average batch cycle time! Wow!–2 ingredients were loaded in series2 ingredients are loaded in parallel–Agitation was started after both raw materials were loadedAgitation starts as soon the bottom impeller is submerged–Mix time used to be 1 hour to ensure adequate mixingMix time was left at 1 hour…but ingredients are loaded at a constant ratio to each other–Heating began only when all ingredients were loaded and mix time completedHeating begins just after kettle loading is 1/10 complete19But I could do all that without S-88!•Yes, you could, if you knew it all in the beginningand, if
