There are several states that define the availability of a Welding Power Source and that are used in
calculating the Availability factor in OEE. You can read more about calculating the Availability factor on
page 9.5.
Welding (green): This is the amount of time during the indicated hour(s) that the selected
Welding Power Source was welding (i.e., Status = Welding). This information is included in the
calculation of Operating Time.
Idle (yellow): This is the amount of time during the indicated hour(s) that the selected Welding
Power Source was ready and able to weld, but was not welding (i.e., Status = Idle).
NOTE |
When the amount of Idle time exceeds the number in the
Idle Time Threshold field set by the CheckPoint™
administrator for this Welding Power Source, that full time
turns into Unplanned Downtime.
Unplanned Downtime (red): Unplanned Downtime is the amount of time that you expect the
welder to be welding but it cannot because it is faulted. Unplanned Downtime is subtracted
from your Planned Production Time in the Availability calculation to reach your Operating Time.
Planned Downtime (dark blue): Planned Downtime is the amount of time to be excluded from
Availability calculations because there was no intention of running production. Examples of
Planned Downtime include breaks, lunch, scheduled maintenance and other non-production
times. See page 9.10 for more in-depth details on establishing Planned Downtime in
CheckPoint™.
