Low OEE from Untracked Downtime in Bottling Lines
Definition
Distillery bottling lines often start with OEE as low as 60% due to unmeasured downtime, performance losses, and quality issues in filling and verification. Without KPI tracking systems, operators cannot identify recurring bottlenecks, leading to persistent waste of capacity and materials. Implementing OEE monitoring enables improvement to 80%, implying substantial prior losses.[5]
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: $200K+ per year per line (derived from 20% OEE uplift at 60-120 bpm output)
- Frequency: Continuous during operations
- Root Cause: Absence of real-time KPI measurement for availability, performance, and quality in fill verification and capping
