Total Productive Maintenance

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is a structured approach to improving equipment reliability, productivity, and overall manufacturing performance. This course introduces participants to the principles and practices of TPM and its role in reducing equipment losses and unplanned downtime. Participants learn how to improve Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) by focusing on availability, performance, and quality. The course covers preventive, predictive, and autonomous maintenance practices for effective equipment management. It explains how operators and maintenance teams can work together to identify and prevent equipment problems. Participants also learn about the eight pillars of TPM and their practical application in industrial environments. The course addresses common equipment losses, breakdowns, defects, setup losses, and idle time. It introduces methods for root cause analysis, continuous improvement, and maintenance planning. Practical TPM tools and performance measurement techniques help organizations improve equipment utilization and reduce maintenance costs. By completing the course, participants can apply TPM principles to create a more reliable, efficient, and productive manufacturing environment.
