Use Case 1:

Automatic Reject Counting

Real-Time Quality

What it is:
Rejects are automatically counted in real time using sensors or reject stations along the line.

What you get:

• Real-time updates on reject quantities.

• Immediate Quality calculation.

• OEE and OOE based on live data.

Good to know:

This setup is ideal for lines with reject stations directly connected to the system.

Use Case 2:

Rejects by Subtraction

IN - OUT = Rejects

What it is:
Rejects are calculated by subtracting the net output (OUT) from the total produced at the entry of the line (IN).

How it works:

• The line has an IN point (start of line) and an OUT point (end of line).

• Rejects = IN - OUT

Things to note:

• Depending on the process duration between the "IN" and the "OUT", there may be a delay in data accuracy when the product takes longer than 15 minutes to travel through the line.

• During this delay, Quality = 0%, and OEE/OOE will also appear as 0, which can be confusing.

• The Input and Output Quantity and Quality metrics will be updated progressively to ensure they accurately reflect the data.

Use Case 3:

Hybrid Configuration

What it is:
A combination of:

• Automatic reject counts from multiple stations, and

• A Net Output count at the end of the line (OUT point) to corroborate total rejects that may have been re-worked, removed manually or lost at some point of the process.

What you get:

• More accurate reject tracking across complex lines.
