Total Productive Maintenance Training

Total Productive Maintenance

Understanding TPM

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is a systematic approach designed to enhance the efficiency, productivity, and reliability of equipment within an organization. TPM focuses on eliminating 16 major losses that hinder production efficiency. Implementing and training for Total Productive Maintenance not only boosts production by improving machine effectiveness but also elevates employee morale and job satisfaction.

  • Total means Total involvement of all employees from Top to Bottom and Total elimination of all losses
  • Productive means Prevention & sustenance, Partnership between Production & Maintenance and Maximum productivity by maximising OEE, Yield & Reducing Costs
  • Maintenance means maintaining basic conditions of Equipment, Operations and Environment
3reasons Why you need TMP

Need For Total Productive Maintenance

  • The economic environment surrounding corporations has become even more severe and total elimination of waste is required for the survival of any organisation. Therefore, wastes generated due to the failure shutdown of facilities which have been built with huge investment and wastes such as defective products should be absolutely eliminated.
  • Requirements for product quality has become even more stringent and not even one defective product should be allowed. Quality-assured delivery of total quantity is now taken for granted.
  • The small-lot production of various kinds of products and shortening of production lead time have been strongly required to meet diversified customer needs. That is to say, TPM to reduce the 8 major equipment losses to zero has been recognized as necessary for corporate survival.

How we can help you in TPM Implementation?

Our TPM consultants engage all levels and function in an organization to maximize overall production efficiency besides tuning up existing processes and equipment by reducing mistakes and accidents. Our TPM consultants ensure that while the maintenance department remains the key holder for preventive maintenance, it is not restricted to the department and involve workers in all department and levels to ensure effective equipment operation.

A vital part of our Total Productive Maintenance consulting is to train workers to take care of the equipment with which they work. Our TPM training consultants work with your team on preventive maintenance, mistake-proofing equipment, to eliminate product defects and to make maintenance easier. Our TPM consulting also includes designing and installing equipment that needs little or no maintenance and setting up processes for quickly repairing equipment after breakdowns occur.

Our Total Productive Maintenance consulting is directed towards the ultimate goal of zero equipment breakdown and zero product defects, which in turn results in improved utilization of production assets and plant capacity.

Importan Facts About TPM Training

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is an emerging concept that strives to enhance the reliability, efficiency and productivity of men and machines across an organization - ideally a manufacturing facility. Keeping employees motivated and happy is as important as maintaining equipment in perfect condition for manufacturing firms to continuously churn out quality deliverables within agreed timelines. While the concept may seem simple, successful implementation requires all employees to be familiar with TPM program in order to practise it on a daily basis.

The scope of TPM training typically spans different types of maintenance - planned, preventative, predictive and autonomous, how to define standard operating procedures, plan and schedule maintenance jobs, track them using key performance indicators, analyse failures, criticality, and root causes, and draw up maintenance reports. Identifying scope for improvement and effectively managing spare parts and other related topics are also addressed.

TPM training is ideal for manufacturing organizations that are looking to enhance the overall efficiency of production facilities. The training is intended for all employees associated with the production system, from engineers and supervisors to shop floor workers, maintenance personnel and support staff.
