OEE/TRS Software

Measuring your OEE is good. Improving it sustainably is even better. Ellistat’s OEE software links each performance loss to its root cause and, when connected to the APC, automatically triggers the corrective action on the machine tool.

TRS/OEE Monitoring: Understanding Losses to Take Action

A declining OEE is a warning sign. But there is often a blind spot between the warning sign and the actual cause (tool drift, thermal variation, batch too short). Ellistat’s OEE module does more than just display a metric: it links each performance loss to its source and can automatically trigger a correction on the machine via the APC module.
The TRS (Total Productive Efficiency, or OEE) is calculated as follows: TRS = availability × performance × quality. A TRS of 60 % means that 40 % of your machines’ operating time does not produce good parts.

The Benefits of the TRS Ellistat Software

Closed-loop system with the APC

When a quality deviation is detected, the APC automatically corrects the machine offsets without human intervention. TRS does not improve simply because it is monitored, but because the root cause is addressed.

Universal Connectivity

Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Mazak, Heidenhain, Okuma... the OEE module connects directly to the CNC machines in your workshop, without the need for an intermediate box.

Part of the Ellistat suite

Quality losses are tracked in SPC, measuring instruments are monitored in METRO, and deviations are analyzed by DATA ANALYSIS. OEE is not a standalone system; it is fed and enriched by the entire Ellistat ecosystem.

How does TRS software work in a machine shop?

Ellistat's OEE module automates the tracking of the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) on your CNC machines, from data collection to the automatic correction of deviations using the APC module. 

Automatic Collection of Machine Data : The OEE module connects directly to CNC machines to continuously collect machine status data: cycle times, downtime, and part counts. No manual data entry is required by the operator.

Real-time calculation of the three components of OEE : Availability, performance, and quality are calculated automatically. 

Identifying the Causes of Loss : Each event can be categorized to help you perform your Pareto and other analyses.

Automatic correction with the APC module : If the loss of quality is due to machine drift, the APC recalculates and sends the correction to the machine tool.

They're improving their OEE with Ellistat

With the implementation of APC on our fleet of multispindle lathes, we have achieved very impressive gains on several fronts: reduced machine downtime, improved OEE, and a significant decrease in the scrap rate. In addition, we have reduced our scrap rate from 4% to 1.5%, and we can extend the intervals between inspections because the software ensures consistent machine performance.
