Introduction

This program focuses on the practical aspects of Implementing Total Productive Maintenance to achieve maximum machine utilization or "Zero Machine Downtime".

Course Duration

2 Days.

Objectives

  • At the end of this program, participants should be able to:
  • Appreciate the Benefit of "Full machine utilization - Zero Down Time"
  • Apply the most effective and efficient methods in maintaining machines
  • Establish the necessary Plant Maintenance skills in their organizations
  • Establish the implementation plan for TPM in their organizations

Methodology

This course is conducted through lecture and informal group discussion Participants shall draft out a suitable implementation plan for their organizations at the end of the session. Appropriate training video will also be used in this session.

Who Should Attend

Supervisors, Executives, Engineers and Managers involve in Quality, Process, Planning and Production.
