Course details
Total productive maintenance is a holistic approach to equipment maintenance that strives to achieve perfect production. Getting operators involved in maintaining their own equipment, and emphasizing proactive and preventive maintenance means fewer breakdowns, stops, and defects. This course teaches this innovative approach to maintenance that optimizes equipment effectiveness through continuous improvement of product and service processes. TPM promotes a reliability-based maintenance system utilizing proactive, predictive, and preventive maintenance practices focusing on the entire equipment life cycle. Learn how TPM requires buy-in at every level of the organization—from executive to middle management to frontline and support teams working together. Ultimately, this course will help you promote and implement team-based activities aimed at the organization-wide goal of zero defects and zero breakdowns.
