Course Description

Maintenance has traditionally been viewed as a separate entity outside of the manufacturing process. As companies began to identify the role of maintenance in the production process a gradual shift in thinking occurred. TPM emerged out of the need to integrate maintenance with manufacturing to improve productivity and asset availability. The culmination of change from a reactive/corrective maintenance environment to one that is based on preventative maintenance through predictive maintenance is the process of TPM.

TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) is a maintenance philosophy designed to integrate equipment maintenance into the manufacturing process. The goal of any TPM program is to eliminate losses tied to equipment maintenance or, in other words, keep equipment producing only good product, as fast as possible with no unplanned downtime.
