A systematic approach to improving production and quality systems, total productive maintenance (TPM) involves all employees through a moderate investment in maintenance. Therefore, a successful TPM implementation requires support of all employees from C-level on down. Total Productive Maintenance: Strategies and Implementation Guide highlights the
Reduce or eliminate costly downtime Short on teory and long on practice, this book provides examples and case studies, designed to provide maintenance engineers and supervisors with a framework for operational strategies and day-to-day management and training techniques that will keep their equipment running at top efficiency.
Recent advancements in information systems and computer technology have led to developments in equipment and robotic technology that have permanently changed the characteristics of manufacturing equipment. Equipment Management in the Post-Maintenance Era: A New Alternative to Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) introduces a new way of thinking to help high-tech organizations manage an increasingly complex equipment base. It also facilitates the fundamental understanding of equipment management those in traditional industries will need to prepare for the emerging microchip era in equipment. Kern Peng shares insights gained through decades of managing equipment performance. Using a systems model to analyze equipment management, he introduces alternatives in equipment management that are currently gaining momentum in high-tech industries. The book highlights the fundamental internal flaw in maintenance organizational setup, presents new approaches to replace maintenance functional setup, and illustrates a time-tested transformation and implementation process to help transition your organization from the maintenance era to the new post-maintenance era. Breaks down the history of equipment into five phases Provides a clear understanding of equipment management fundamentals Introduces alternatives in equipment management beyond the mainstream principles of maintenance management The book examines maintenance management logistics, including planning and budgeting, training and people development, customer services and management, vendor management, and inventory management. Supplying a comprehensive look at the history of equipment management, it analyzes current maintenance practice and details approaches that can significantly improve the effectiveness and efficiency of your equipment management well into the future.
TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) is an innovative approach to maintenance. This book introduces TPM to managers and outlines a three-year program for systematic TPM development and implementation.
Productivity and Reliability-Based Maintenance Management, Second Edition is intended to provide a strong yet practical foundation for understanding the concepts and practices of total productive maintenance (TPM) management—a proactive asset and resource management strategy that is based on enhancing equipment reliability and overall enterprise productivity. The book is intended to serve as a fundamental yet comprehensive educational and practical guide for departing from the wait-failure-emergency repair cycle that has plagued too many industries, instead advancing a proactive and productive maintenance strategy. It is not intended to be a how-to-fix-it manual, but rather emphasizes the concept of a world-class maintenance management philosophy to avoid the failure in the first place. Universities, junior and community colleges, and technical institutes as well as professional, corporate, and industrial training programs can benefit by incorporating these fundamental concepts in their technical and managerial curricula. The book can serve as a powerful educational tool for students as well as for maintenance professionals and managers. In addition to updating the previous historical and statistical data and tables, the second edition expands on and adds to case studies based on current maintenance-related events. Several numerical examples and explanations are revised in order to enhance the clarity of the methodology. The second edition introduces the readers to the state-of-the-art concepts of the Internet of Things (IoT), smart sensors, and their application to maintenance and TPM.
Managing Productive Maintenance is a detailed guide to improve results through the implementation of best practices that eliminates equipment failures and maximizes the productivity of industrial assets. In this book, professionals of maintenance and production areas will find practical guidance and a simple approach to implement proven methods and techniques that unleash the full value in maintenance management activities in their organizations while bringing about unprecedented levels of operational reliability.
Through TPM, more companies accept the concept of Zero Breakdowns as achievable. Based on first hand experience, this is a practical guide to delivering TPM benefits, and world class performance.
Total productive maintenance (TPM), a Japanese management protocol developed to alleviate production losses caused by machine breakdowns and supporting just-in-time manufacturing policies, has aroused considerable interest in the Western world. Based on the author's experience of developing and implementing TPM techniques and training programmes within a wide range of manufacturing, process and utility operations, this book will provide an authoritative and practical explanation of what TPM is and how it can be effectively used as both a demonstrable application of Total Quality and as a key pillar to achieving World Class Performance. Emphasis is placed on the need to tailor your TPM programme to suit local, plant specific needs and is based on the author's experience of seeing TPM at first hand in Japan and then adopting those principles to suit our differing Western cultures. The book also contains a wealth of live examples based on case studies in European companies as well as detailed guidance on Site Roll-Out programmes and obtaining a substantial Management and Supervisory commitment to the TPM process.
This unique reference utilizes techniques based on other management measurement systems, such as the balanced scorecard. It also presents a maturing of measurement technique for maintenance and asset maintenance and development techniques allowing companies to be competitive into the future.
