tpm total productive maintenance

TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) is a culture that focuses on improving the effectiveness of the plant, equipment and processes through the empowerment of people to achieve perfect production.

TPM emphasises proactive and preventative maintenance to maximise the operational efficiency of equipment. It blurs the distinction between the roles of production and maintenance by placing a strong emphasis on empowering operators to help maintain their equipment.

Getting operators involved in maintaining their own equipment, and emphasising proactive and preventive maintenance will lay a foundation for improved production (fewer breakdowns, stops, and defects).

Why Company choose TPM approch

Before TPM implementation Operator only use the machine and the maintenance person is responsible for daily maintenance due to which maintenance persons don’t get enough time for preventive maintenance. After successfully implementing TPM in organization they can Produce or product in LESS TIME, LESS COST, ZERO LOSS, WITHOUT affecting Quality of the product by INVOLING the satisfied employee.
