10in6 OEE Tracking vs Point85 OEE

10in6 OEE Tracking helps manufacturers measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness using machine signals, production counts, downtime events, scrap, and operator context. Its OEE calculation combines Availability, Performance, and Quality: run time against planned time, actual output against expected output, and good parts against total parts. Results can be viewed in real time by machine, line, or area and broken down by shift, product, and time period. The system surfaces downtime, slow cycles, microstops, speed loss, scrap, rejects, and recurring loss patterns. Shop-floor displays, management views, shift and daily reports, and threshold-based alerts show when performance falls. Automatic OEE calculation requires a direct machine or PLC connection, which 10in6 configures and maintains as part of deployment. Listed connections include SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, QAD, Epicor, Sage, and custom systems using file or API interfaces. Connectivity options include industrial protocols, serial, SQL Server, REST API, SCADA, and data historians. Deployments include 10in6 staff to connect equipment, configure workflows, and support operations after go-live. Pricing is on request.

Point85 OEE is a free, open-source suite for collecting manufacturing equipment data, calculating overall equipment effectiveness, and monitoring availability, performance, and quality events. Its OEE calculation combines availability, performance rate, and quality rate in a nine-category time-loss model. The Designer configures equipment, data sources, event-resolution scripts, schedules, availability reasons, materials, and units of measure. The Monitor shows equipment metrics, collector notifications and status, event timelines, trends, time-loss charts, and Pareto charts. Listed data sources include OPC DA/UA, HTTP/S, RabbitMQ, JMS, MQTT, Kafka, WebSocket, email, database interface tables, file shares, Modbus, cron jobs, and GE Proficy Historian. The suite includes Designer, Collector, Monitor, desktop and web operator applications, and operator apps for iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux, and Chrome/Edge. Collector runs as a Windows service or Unix daemon and stores equipment events in a relational database for OEE, MTBF, and MTTR calculations. Supported databases include Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and HSQLDB. The web operator application is distributed as a WAR file for a compatible web server, such as Tomcat. The OEE-Designer repository identifies its license as MIT.
