Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a critical metric that measures the efficiency of manufacturing operations by evaluating the availability, performance, and quality of equipment. Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) into OEE strategies enhances real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and process optimization.
