Autonomous Maintenance in Seven Steps:
Implementing TPM on the Shop Floor |
|
Authors: Fumio Gotoh, Masaji Tajiri
Autonomous maintenance is an especially important pillar of Total Productive
Maintenance (TPM) because it enlists the intelligence and skills of the
people who are most familiar with factory machines-- equipment operators.
Operators learn the maintenance skills they need to know through a
seven-step autonomous maintenance program. Most companies in the West stop
after implementing the first few steps and never realize the full benefits
of autonomous maintenance. This book contains comprehensive coverage of all
seven steps--not just the first three or four.
It includes:
An overview of autonomous maintenance features and checklists for step
audits to certify team achievement at each AM step.
TPM basics such as the six big losses, overall equipment effectiveness (OEE),
causes of losses, and six major TPM activities.
An implementation plan for TPM and five countermeasures for achieving zero
breakdowns.
Useful guidelines and case studies in applying AM to manual work such as
assembly, inspection, and material handling.
Integrates examples from Toyota, Asai Glass, Bridgestone, Hitachi, and other
top companies.
By treating machines as partners and taking responsibility for them, you get
machines that you can rely on and help maintain an energized and responsive
workplace. For companies that are serious about taking autonomous
maintenance beyond mere cleaning programs, this is an essential sourcebook
and implementation support.
