Abstract

Mining is a costly activity that requires huge investments and large equipment. Therefore, it is crucial to use mining equipment efficiently to maximize productivity. This requires the continuous analysis of equipment efficiency and taking action to reduce negative impacts. Accurately estimating equipment efficiency is essential to increase its effectiveness. One globally recognized and accepted measurement is Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). In this study was conducted to calculate the OEE values of shovels and trucks, which are the primary equipment used in open pit mining. The study presented different loss times and quality values while calculating the OEE values of mining equipment. The OEE values of electric trucks and shovels were found to be consistent with actual work quantities in the Manisa-Soma Lignite open pit operation. This study is the first applied study of OEE analysis in Turkey.
