Planned Downtime – Welding Power Source
For any Planned Downtime that occurs differently per welder (e.g., staggered employee breaks), you can
add that Planned Downtime at the Welding Power Source level. Any downtime that was added at the
Company Site level and at the Container Level appears in the list automatically. See page 9.10 for details
on how to add Planned Downtime.
Figure 9.11 Planned Downtime at the Welding Power Source Level
For example, John at Advanced Manufacturing needs to define the employee breaks on his Welding Power
Sources as Planned Downtime. (The Planned Downtimes for this welder already contain those times
defined at the Company Site level and Container level.) He also has a maintenance time planned for one of
the welders on 08/05/2013. He doesn’t expect that welder to be productive during that time. He can add
it as Planned Downtime so it doesn’t adversely affect his OEE percentage. John added the following
Planned Downtimes to the first welder in the Line 1 Container.
