Open publisher page 20 citations

Abstract

To improve productivity it is essential to improve the performance of the manufacturing systems. This system consists of various resources like labour, materials, tools, plant and equipment, and others, used for production. The desired production output is achieved through high equipment availability, which is influenced by equipment reliability and maintainability. Maintenance function is therefore vital for sustainable performance of any manufacturing plant, since, a proper maintenance plan improve the equipment availability and reliability. The paper describes the maintenance (Total Productive Maintenance) as strategy to improve manufacturing performance. Further, 5S as the base of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) as a measure of effectiveness have also been discussed.
