Factories are continually looking for new ways to produce more at lower cost and fewer failures, thus preventing scrap or production losses. Given this, increasingly effective means of measuring performance are used so that other details can be studied that lead to difficulties and bottlenecks in production. Overall Equipment Effectiveness - OEE is a calculation that provides knowledge of machine availability, production performance, and the quality with which parts are assembled or made. This paper is a case study carried out in an air conditioning factory, with the main objective the implementation of the monthly OEE; as specific objectives, present the concepts and their applicability within a company; analyze the welding process of the factory; present a proposal for improvement through the result obtained. As expected results, the OEE can provide the information needed for internal improvement and thus, correction and prevention of failures and economic losses for the organization.
