learn moreZARPAC has a single-minded focus on helping customers maximize line availability and Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and we encourage our customers to focus on these metrics for four key reasons:
Of these four reasons, # 4 is the most compelling because routine data collection, data aggregation, data storage and analysis have long been a significant hurdle for companies with a desire to implement OEE best practices.
Without continuous, comprehensive, and automatic data collection, calculating OEE is very difficult.
ZPI Monitor & Report makes it easy to implement OEE continuous improvement initiatives and it can help make OEE an everyday part of packaging line operation and management. It puts the data your team needs to accurately calculate and analyze OEE at their fingertips 24 / 7 / 365.
ZARPAC customers that make OEE measurement and optimization part of their daily routine operate the highest performance packaged goods manufacturing lines in the world.
We are very proud to say that in many cases, we have contributed to this exceptional performance.

What Is Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)?
If you are familiar with OEE as a popular industry acronym, or Overall Equipment Effectiveness as a popular industry buzzword, and would like to know more about it, we hope you will find the following non-technical overview helpful.
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is an objective and comprehensive process for measuring downtime on a packaging line and identifying the root causes of that downtime.
The basic premise of OEE is once you know how much downtime you have, where it occurs on the production line and what is causing it, you can do something about it.
When targeted corrective actions are then implemented, improved OEE means more cases out the door using equivalent or even lower labor and material resources.
There is of course more to the OEE measurement and calculation process, but here is what a manager needs to remember:
As far as ZARPAC is concerned the best OEE line monitoring and measurement tool money can buy is ZPI Monitor & Report.
