This article explains how to calculate Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) using AWS IoT SiteWise for industrial equipment monitoring, using an airport baggage handling system as an example.

• OEE comprises three components: Availability, Quality, and Performance multiplied together
• Availability calculated from run time versus downtime using sensor thresholds for temperature and speed
• Quality measured by successful bag counts versus dubious counts from photo electric sensor
• Performance derived from actual throughput divided by ideal run rate of 300 bags/hour
• AWS IoT SiteWise transforms and metrics automate OEE calculations from sensor data streams
• Python SDK enables programmatic definition of complex formulas across multiple environments
• Public repository provides synthetic data and code for implementing OEE dashboards

The article demonstrates end-to-end OEE implementation using AWS IoT SiteWise native capabilities for data collection, transformation, and visualization in manufacturing and industrial settings.
