Regal Rexnord breaks down five issues that often hurt plant OEE: the constant tug-of-war between production and maintenance, the high cost of unplanned downtime, the loss of tribal knowledge when experienced workers leave, the limits of manual machine monitoring, and common causes of bearing failures. It gives practical, shop-floor-ready solutions, like using predictive maintenance, real-time condition monitoring, and better knowledge sharing, to cut downtime, keep machines running at peak efficiency, and hit production targets more reliably.
