How it's calculatedFour lines of arithmetic, with your numbers in themChange any input above and these update. Nothing is hidden.
Planned time = 3 lines × 2 shifts × 8 h × 5 days × 50 weeks12,000 h
Hours back = 12,000 h × 10 OEE points1,200 h
Value = 1,200 h × $1,200 per line-hour$1,440,000
Throughput gain = 10 points ÷ 62% OEE today+16.1%
