Focused Equipment Improvement For Tpm Teams

As distinguished from autonomous maintenance, where the main goal is to restore basic conditions of cleanliness, lubrication, and proper fastening to prevent accelerated deterioration, FEI looks at specific losses or design weaknesses that everyone previously thought they just had to live with. Once your TPM operator teams are progressing with their daily autonomous maintenance activities, you will want to take the next advanced step in TPM training with this book. Key Features: a simple and powerful introduction to P-M Analysis hints for unraveling breakdown analysis numerous ideas for simplifying and shortening setups ideas for eliminating minor stoppages and speed losses basic concepts of building quality into processing real-life examples from a leading Japanese tool company Educate and empower all your workers to support your TPM improvement activities with

Focused equipment improvement shows dramatic savings from reduced waste and inefficiency. Create a maintenance program that reaches all departments in your company. The learning package is everything you need to lead a learning session on focused equipment improvement. An effective tool for teaching teams about TPM and focused equipment improvement See dramatic improvements in the reliability and maintainability of your company's equipment Assess the trainees to see if they have learned the material with end of section questions. The first module introduces trainees to their roles and responsibilities. As well, the module demonstrates the basic concepts of Focused Equipment Improvement. The second module defines the relationship between equipment breakdowns and maintenance and increases operators' understanding of their role in eliminating defects. The latter modules discuss achieving defect-free changeover, preventing minor stoppages from using equipment improvement techniques and preventing speed loss. Other topics include Understanding the 4m's Learning from breakdowns Comparing equipment specifications with the current state Discussing maintenance measures that help prevent loss of precision in equipment Making maintenance inspections easier Learning how Focused Equipment Improvement fits into a TPM program

Agilent Technologies, formerly Hewlett-Packard's Test and Measurement Division, operates an integrated circuit fabrication plant in Fort Collins, Colorado. Guided by Masaji Taijiri, the author of 7 Steps to Autonomous Maintenance (see page 34), author Jim Leflar and his team at Agilent developed a complete TPM program for the complex equipment on their shop floor. Drawn from these experiences, Practical TPM is a must read for anyone who wants to begin successful TPM implementation. Part I explains the fundamental concepts of TPM, including the six basic principles of TPM, the goals of TPM, cultural changes resulting from TPM, and the keys to successful implementation. Part II — the heart of the book — describes, in step-by-step detail, the evolution of Agilent's TPM program. Each phase is clearly defined and demonstrated; the working tools and systems developed by the Agilent TPM team in the process are discussed at length. To conclude, Part III focuses on developing a vision and a strategy for your own successful TPM program. Replete with annotated photographs and illustrations documenting Agilent's successful program, Practical TPM: Successful Equipment Management at Agilent Technologies offers an invaluable roadmap to TPM implementation. The book covers: A step-by-step TPM program as implemented at a major US corporation The 5-why analysis method Examples of one-point lessons Using visual controls in a TPM program Tools for understanding equipment failures Improving machine productivity Improvement metrics Master checklists and forms Developing activity boards Appendices containing examples of maintenance training materials For a PDF file with the preface and table of contents click here.

Total Productive Maintenance is a Japanese-originated philosophy aimed at maximizing the effectiveness of machinery and equipment on the shop floor. This book provides a way of linking machinery performance directly to business ratios, and shows TPM can be applied to increase productivity.

Equipment downtime can bring a lean manufacturing operation to a complete standstill. Total productive maintenance (TPM) is such a fundamental part of becoming lean because a machine failure at one step of a continuous flow process will halt all the steps before and after it. Strategies aimed at eliminating downtime are essential in any operation i

TPM involves employees companywide in preventing equipment abnormalities and breakdowns. The first line of defense: equipment operators-the people most familiar with daily operating conditions. In addition to regular cleaning and inspection, team-based improvement activities make effective use of operators' hands-on knowledge. How do you organize TPM teams and keep them vital? TPM Team Guide tells supervisors, workgroup leaders, and operators how to develop the team-based skills required for successful TPM implementation. Geared toward TPM projects, it describes basic elements of improvement activities for any kind of shopfloor team. TPM Team Guide gives simple explanations of basic TPM concepts such as the six big losses, and emphasizes the integration of TPM activities with production management. Chapters describe the team-based improvement process step by step, from goal to standardization of the improved operations. Team leaders will learn how to hold effective meetings and deal with the human issues that stand in the way of success. The tools for team problem solving and the steps for preparing a good presentation of results are detailed here as well. Written in simple language, with abundant illustrations and cartoon examples, this book makes TPM activities understandable to everyone in the company. Frontline supervisors, operators, facilitators, and trainers in manufacturing companies will want to use this practical guide to improve company performance and build a satisfying workplace for employees.
