TPM (Total Productive Maintenance)

8:30 am – 4:30 pm

$295 ($235 MACNY members), lunch provided

Program Overview:
  • Are you frustrated by unplanned downtime on machine tools?
  • Would you like to improve the utilization of your production equipment?
TPM is a comprehensive maintenance system that converts the maintenance function from repair to reliability. Learn about:
  • Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and how it relates to capacity
  • The ten-fold effect of 5S techniques when applied to your equipment
  • The six major equipment-related losses
  • How to find and eliminate the 4 causes of 75% of equipment breakdowns

Participants will learn how to apply the techniques. By the end of the day, you’ll clearly see how these techniques can achieve dramatic improvements in uptime and increased equipment effectiveness.
