Maximizing 3D Printer Performance: Leveraging IoT and OEE for Additive Manufacturing Success

In the rapidly evolving landscape of additive manufacturing, optimizing performance is crucial for business success. In this presentation, we'll examine Stratasys' initiatives to track Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), the industry standard for measuring manufacturing productivity, and see how they're adapting it to enhance 3D printing operations. We’ll delve into the different definitions that make up OEE—measuring printer uptime, utilization, performance and the production of quality parts—and share strategies to maximize productivity in additive manufacturing. By embracing digital transformation in additive manufacturing, businesses can drive productivity, reduce costs, and gain a competitive edge. This session will provide attendees with the knowledge and tools to implement these strategies effectively in their own operations.
