OEE & Factory Performance worked example
Planned Downtime Ratio at 17% target planned downtime ratio: a worked example
This scenario runs the planned downtime ratio calculation on the strong side: 17% target planned downtime ratio, with every other input held at its documented default. Use it to track planned downtime ratio against target in OEE & Factory Performance.
The inputs for this scenario
- Planned downtime minutes: 60 min (unchanged)
- Total scheduled production minutes: 480 min (unchanged)
- Target planned downtime ratio: 17 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 15)
Working through the calculation
- Applying the documented formula (Planned downtime ratio = planned downtime ÷ total scheduled time × 100) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
- At this operating point the engine returns 12.5 % for planned downtime ratio, the number this scenario is built around.
- At this operating point the engine returns 4.5 points for gap to target.
- At this operating point the engine returns 60 count for planned downtime.
- At this operating point the engine returns 480 count for total scheduled time.
How this compares with the baseline
- Against the tool's baseline example, where target planned downtime ratio sits at 15% and the headline result is 12.5 %, this scenario lands almost exactly on the baseline at 12.5 %.
- Use it during shift reviews or capacity studies to see how much scheduled time is intentionally given up and whether it is trending toward your target. Treat this as a target state: the delta against the baseline quantifies what the improvement is worth before you commit to chasing it.
Results at a glance
