NLogix Profile Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
TPM is a maintenance program concept. TPM brings maintenance into focus as a necessary and vitally important part of the business. It is no longer regarded as a non-profit activity. Down time for maintenance is scheduled as a part of the manufacturing day and, in some cases, as an integral part of the manufacturing process. It is no longer simply squeezed in whenever there is a break in material flow. The goal is to hold emergency and unscheduled maintenance to a minimum.
Under TPM, operators no longer limit themselves to simply using the machine and calling the technician when a breakdown occurs. Operators can inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust, and even perform simple calibrations on their respective equipment. This frees the technical workforce for higher-level preventive maintenance activities that require more of their technical expertise. Management should also show interest in data concerning equipment uptime, utilization, and efficiency. In short, everyone understands that zero breakdowns, maximum productivity, and zero defects are goals to be shared by everyone under TPM.
