Abstract
A method includes acquiring, by a vibro-acoustic sensor in a vicinity of a machine, vibro-acoustic signals due to an operation of the machine. The acquired vibro-acoustic signals are analyzed so as to estimate at least two operational parameters of the machine, selected from a group of the operational parameters consisting of an uptime factor, a production speed factor, and a production quality factor of the machine. An overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) of the machine is computed, the computed OEE including at least one of a minimum and a product of the at least two estimated operational parameters.
