Which plan are the reports in?

The Pro plan. It also opens the planning screen, the part catalogue and the 3D viewer. Production entries are in the free plan, so the data the reports use builds up from day one.

Do I need sensors on my machines for OEE?

No. OEE is calculated from the run hours, production and downtime that are entered. Spindeo does not read data from machines automatically today, so the numbers are as accurate as the records.

Why is a machine's OEE empty?

If the data needed is missing, no made-up percentage is shown. The cell says why: no planned hours, no production records, no standard time, or no good part count. Below the row you also see which days were left out of the calculation.

Why is the profit not calculated?

Missing data is not counted as zero; if it were, the job would look more profitable than it is. If the hourly cost, material price or accepted quote is missing, profit stays empty and the gaps are listed. A work order still running shows no profit until it is finished.

Are overheads like rent and electricity included in the cost?

They are not spread across jobs. If you include them in the machine's hourly cost they count; if not, the real profit is lower than the report shows. The report reminds you of this on screen.

How efficient your machines are, and which jobs made money

Reports ask for no extra data. OEE, machine load, scrap trend and job profitability come from the production, run hours and downtime your operators already record. If a number cannot be calculated it stays empty and says why; missing data is never counted as zero.

How it works

1
Record production and run hours
The operator enters good and scrapped parts on the tablet or by hand. Each machine's planned and actual hours for the day go into the Machine Hours screen; stops are recorded with their reason.
2
Set standard times and costs
The standard time in the process plan is what performance is measured against. For profitability you need the machine's hourly cost, the material price per kilogram and the raw weight per part.
3
Reports fill in on their own
Reports update as records come in; there is nothing to prepare. Looking empty in the first days is normal; with a few weeks of data the numbers start to mean something.
4
Fill in what is missing
When a rate or a profit cannot be calculated, the reason is shown in its place: no standard time, no hourly cost, no accepted quote. Once you fill the gap, the number appears.

The profitability report: each project's actual cost, revenue from the accepted quote, and profit. Projects with missing data are flagged; revenue comes from the quote in the Sales plan.

What's included

OEE per machine

Availability is run time over planned time, performance is the time production should have taken at standard over run time, and quality is good parts over total parts. Rates are ratios of totals, not averages of daily percentages.

Stops explain the loss

Planned and unplanned stop hours are shown separately. Loss that no stop record explains has its own column, so nothing is hidden inside another figure.

Job and project profit

Machine time, labour, material and job-specific costs (outside processing, shipping, tooling) next to the quoted price. A job still running shows no profit; its cost is what has been spent so far.

Machine and operation load

How many hours each machine is loaded, which operation takes the most time, and how long work orders took against standard time, each in its own report.

Scrap and yield

Scrap trend by day, machine and producer comparisons, and the gap between expected and actual parts per piece of raw material.

Project durations

How long projects took, setup times, pauses and completed jobs. With the Traceability and Stock plan, the raw material consumption and stock flow reports fill in too.
