The video also links to a simple-to-use OEE calculator that allows owners and managers of flexo operations to calculate OEE using their own data.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-38069\" src=\"https:\/\/www.converter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/ASAHI-OEE_image_OEE-title-300x172.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"172\" \/>\u201cOver the years, Asahi Photoproducts has published much information about OEE and the role our plates can play in improving a flexo operation\u2019s OEE percentage,\u201d <em><strong>says Dieter Niederstadt, Technical Marketing Manager of Asahi Photoproducts Europe.<\/strong><\/em> \u201cAlthough not rocket science for many operations, the OEE concept has remained complicated and how to actually calculate it a bit obscure. There was no handy explanation for a quick and easy calculation of the OEE specific to flexography for a specific operation or press. With the release of this video and our easy-to-use OEE calculator, this all changes. Now, the meaning of OEE for flexo operations and how they can determine the operation\u2019s OEE is no longer obscure or complicated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-38067\" src=\"https:\/\/www.converter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/OEE_image_OEE-machine-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>In Asahi\u2019s experience, customers who simply switch to Asahi CleanPrint water-washable plates can improve their print production capacity by up to 1\/3 with little requirement for change in the overall plant workflow. This was learned both from customers with long run jobs as well as customers with frequent job changes. As part of calculating the total cost of ownership (TCO) of prepress and the pressroom in a flexo plant, OEE is a significant factor. \u201cMany operations limit their view by focusing mainly on the cost of flexo plates,\u201d <em><strong>Niederstadt adds,<\/strong><\/em> \u201cbut once you examine the operation more holistically <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-38068\" src=\"https:\/\/www.converter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/ASAHI-OEE_image_OEE-score.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"328\" height=\"118\" \/>as you calculate your own OEE, you will note that the cost of plates is actually a significantly smaller percentage of the overall picture than you might have realized. The value gained by improving OEE boils down to the ability to increase throughput of sellable finished product while reducing waste, making it easier to meet the tighter production deadlines imposed by today\u2019s brands, who are anxious to improve their time to market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To better understand how OEE applies to the flexo industry, how it is calculated, and the impact of improving it, view our educational video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5n1gEADHImQ&amp;feature=youtu.be\">here<\/a>.
