Total Productive Maintenance
Frequently, a high degree of automation enables economic production. But this also increases the number of sources of functional disturbances. In addition, the organizational separation of production and maintenance tasks has a negative impact on the effective use of production facilities, as this creates an isolation between influence and responsibility.
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) supports the transfer of responsibility for routine maintenance to the production staff. The results are, in addition to a reduction in the functional disturbances, also less set-up times. In addition, the concept aims to increase the process reliability as well as the ease of operation and maintenance of the systems.
TPM relies on a productivity-oriented mix of preventive and condition-oriented maintenance services, supplemented by a continuous plant improvement process.
