Total productive maintenance - Introduction
History
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) was developed by Seiichi Nakajima based
on experience of the practical application of maintenance best practice in
Japan between 1950 and 1970. This experience led to the recognition that a
leadership mindset engaging front line teams in small group improvement
activity is an essential element of effective operation. The outcome from his
work was the application of the TPM process in 1971. One of the first
companies to gain from this was Nippondenso, a company that created parts
for Toyota.[1] They became the first winner of the PM prize. An internationally
accepted TPM benchmark developed by the JIPM Seichii nakajima is therefore
regarded as the father of TPM.[2] The classic TPM process he developed
consisting of 5 principles was later enhanced by the JIPM to incorporate many
4|P ag e
of the lessons of Lean Manufacturing and is referred to as Company Wide TPM
which consists of 8 principles/pillars.
Objectives
Traditional TPM
The traditional approach to TPM was developed in the 1960s and consists
of 5S as a foundation and eight supporting activities (sometimes referred to as
pillars).

The 5S Foundation
Sort (eliminate anything that is not truly needed in the work area)
Set in Order (organize the remaining items)
Shine (clean and inspect the work area)
Standardize (create standards for performing the above three activities)
Sustain (ensure the standards are regularly applied)
Principles
The eight pillars of TPM are mostly focused on proactive and preventive
techniques for improving equipment reliability:
1. Autonomous Maintenance
2. Focused Improvement
3. Planned Maintenance
4. Quality management
5. Early/equipment management
6. Education and Training
7. Administrative & office TPM
8. Safety Health Environmental conditions

With the help of these pillars we can increase productivity. Manufacturing

Introduction to OEE
OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is a metric that identifies thepercentage
of planned production time that is truly productive. It was developed to support
TPM initiatives by accurately tracking progress towards achieving “perfect
production”.
Implementation
Following are the steps involved by the implementation of TPM in an
organization:

Who should participate?
Under the total productive maintenance philosophy, everyone from top-level
management to equipment operators should participate in maintenance. But
how? Each member of an organization can contribute in their own way:
Operators
Operators are the owners of a facility’s assets, meaning they need to take
responsibility for the day-to-day maintenance of their machines. This includes
the cleaning and regular lubrication necessary for equipment health. Operators
are also expected to find early signs of equipment deterioration and report
them, as well as determine ways to improve equipment operation.
Advantages of TPM
Fewer breakdowns
When machine operators keep an eye out for changes with their equipment, big
issues are more likely to be spotted early, before a breakdown occurs. This lets
8|P ag e
the maintenance team get on top of their PM maintenance schedule, rather
than always reacting to emergency breakdowns.
Safer workplace
Technicians are much more likely to take risks when rushing to fix a
breakdown, so fewer breakdowns generally mean a safer workplace. On top of
that, when everyone keeps maintenance in mind, problems can be spotted and
dealt with well before they become potentially dangerous situations.
