ABSTRACT

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is a proven methodology in manufacturing industries in

all sectors - process, and discrete. Objective of TPM is to ensure zero breakdowns and improve

overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). The method followed under TPM is called Planned

Maintenance (PM) system to achieve maximum availability of equipments minimize cost of

maintenance .Equipments deteriorate due to prolonged negligence, lack of understanding of

equipments functioning, lack of skill of repairing and no knowledge about the wear and tear of

parts so that the same need to be replaced before these fail.

The main aim of this work is to implement Planned Maintenance using TPM methodology for a

Bicycle Tyre manufacturing company. This will improve and sustain equipment availability and

reduce cost of manufacturing through reduction of unwanted and unwarranted break-down due to

lack of systematic approach. To achieve these goals, Planned Maintenance system is to be

implemented. The strategy adopted to develop a sustainable and cost effective maintenance system

by Ranking of equipments based on quality, yield, working status, maintainability, period interval

failure, delay factor/cost and safety through collection of past data of failures of equipments.

Equipments ranked-A are considered for Planned Maintenance system. Such ranked-equipments

are studied in detail and with reference to past failure data a preventive maintenance plan is

developed. The objective is to test out this maintenance plan and measure Mean Time Between

Failures (MTBF), Mean Time To Repair (MTTR), Availability, Cost of maintenance and

effectiveness of the maintenance plan.

1. INTRODUCTION

Rubber Industry is one of the basic core sectors of manufacturing and most of the companies are with old generation set-up. Equipments developed were less sophisticated. As the industries are old hence skill level of the personnel on equipment maintenance is low.

The performance of the company over last 3 years to understand the importance of Planned Maintenance, Cost of Maintenance is hovering around 12-14% of total Manufacturing cost. Industry standard is below 10%. Hence an opportunity to improve company's profitability, even if there is a reduction of 2%.

2. LITERATURE REVIEW

TPM was born in 1971 and many Japanese companies started practising it. The first PM award was given to Nippon Denso Ltd in the year 1971.For more than 20 years since the inception of TPM, only Japanese companies were practising TPM. However some overseas companies found the importance of TPM to their organisations and started following it. Indian companies initiated TPM since 1991, but the real burst came in 1998 when Japan Institute of Plant Management (JIPM) and Confederation of Indian Industry became partners for the promotion of TPM in India. Tokutara Suzuki [1] In his work, TPM is spreading spreading rapidly because its activities are highly attractive. The major reasons of attraction as per Suzuki are the following: Total employee involvement in the literal sense, Zero orientation,. Terry Wireman [2] In his work, good and sound maintenance practices are essential for effective TPM. The preventive maintenance programme is designed to eliminate all un-planned equipment failures, Evaluate the PM program, Less than 20% reactive work performed. R.H.Clifton [3] In his work, Planned Maintenance is not a specific type of maintenance but the application of maintenance tackled in a scientific manner. It is the comprehensive planning of the maintenance function. L.A.Doty [4] In his work, considering the importance of maintenance, it is imperative to optimize it -to minimize repair time and cost. Melesse Workneh Wakjira, Ajit Pal Singh [5]: In their work, TPM has been widely known in manufacturing environment. This proactive maintenance strategy contributed to manufacturing performance improvements are highlighted by various researchers Liu Yong and Zhu

Jiajia [6]: In their work, effective and efficient maintenance not only helps to keep equipment/facility in good condition but also extends its life and improves availability and capacity. Chandan Chowdhuri [7] In his work, plant and machinery can be maintained in various ways. In unprecedented system failure, mainly in large, complex systems, it is common to carry out preventive maintenance at predetermined intervals. N.Narayan [8]: In his work, the effectiveness of maintenance function in relation to how it serves and is served by other functions is considered in an integrative management. Kinjiro Nakano [9]:

In his work, it is useful for maintenance personnel to utilize TPM activity as an opportunity to perform Keikaku Hozen's step-up activity on their model line in order to establish a Keikaku Hozen system. It is essential for maintenance personnel to appreciate the necessity of Keikaku Hozen. Like Jishu Hozen, Keikaku Hozen starts with tagging and removal of tags to ensure compliance. L.S Srinath [10]: In his work, the increasing complexity of present day equipment has brought into focus two aspects Maintainability and Availability, both are closely related to reliability. If the reliability of a system is high, then obviously the breakdowns will be less frequent and the availability factor will be high. Hence Availability is closely related with Reliability and Maintainability. A.K.Gupta [11]: In his work, maintainability is characteristics of design and installation which is expressed as the probability that an item will be restored to specified conditions within a given period of time when maintenance action is performed in accordance with prescribed procedures and resources. Mikell.P.Groover [12]: In his work, availability is a common measure of reliability for equipment. It is especially appropriate for automated production equipment. Availability is defined by two other reliability terms, mean time between failures (MTBF) and mean time to repair (MTTR). M.Maran, G.Manikandan,

K.Thiagrajan [13] In their work, it is necessary to establish appropriate matrices for measurement

• Weak points of Design and defects to be found out using WHY-WHY analysis.

• Skill of maintenance to improve

Step-3: Build an information Management system: To start with, prepare equipment ledger. Obtain equipment data like specifications, capacity, manufacturer’s recommendation, equipment history from installation, break-down maintenance report etc. Step-4: Build a Periodic Maintenance system This is Time based maintenance of Equipment. From the Equipment database, machine manufacturer's recommendation, past experience, life span of parts and operators information, arrive at Planned Maintenance calendar. Step-5: Build a Predictive Maintenance system: Introduce Equipment Diagnostic Technology, Train Maintenance personnel in handling Diagnostic Instruments/Devices. Diagnostic Technology like Temperature, Vibration analysis, oil Analysis, Liquid penetration method, Electric resistance method etc. Select area and implement Equipment Diagnostic system .Evaluate Time based Maintenance parts into Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) and consolidate the plan. Step- 6: Evaluate the Planned Maintenance system: By following step 1 to step-5, improvement in Reliability and Maintainability of Equipments can be achieved. Compare the current results on Breakdown rate, MTTR, MTBF, Maintenance cost etc. with target .After comparison, revisit the total system and strengthen the weak point. Finally, consolidate the Planned Maintenance. The main focus on building a Planned Maintenance system is on the following:

• MTBF -Mean time between failures

• MTTR -Mean time to repair

• Cost of Maintenance

• Availability of Equipment

MTBF will show the vulnerability of Equipment in terms of its failure occurrence and also the reasons for its failures.

MTTR will show the capability of people doing repairing, availability of the spares and also criticality of repairing techniques.

Cost of Maintenance is a fall out of both MTBF and MTTR. Due to under stocking of spares, MTTR increases and also due to compromise on planned maintenance MTBF increases.

Why-why analysis:

The why-why analysis is used to determine the root cause of a breakdown, as well as that of defects, equipment deterioration and weak points of equipment design. Countermeasures for the causes and source of the failure are to be brainstormed and the most effective solution implemented. Improvements can be made to strengthen the design of equipment, or its reliability and maintainability. The why-why analysis is constructed by maintenance personnel and can include support from the focused improvement team, to determine the root cause of the Problem.

Kaizens for reliability and maintainability:

Improvements in the reliability and maintainability of equipment, increases the uptime of the machine and thereby reduces losses. All floor personnel were encouraged and engaged in solving small problems through Kaizen principle and it helped in restoration of equipment to its basic condition. 5.4 Skill Development of Maintenance personnel by understanding the details of construction of the equipment and its functioning of all components .Massive training programme for Officers and Maintenance technicians being carried out. There are total 72 Operation and Maintenance Technicians .In total each one of them received on-the job as well as off the job training of 16 hours. While, 6 Maintenance Officers received 24 hours of training each. 5.5 Develop Preventive Maintenance Plan based on Manufacturers Table-5.7 shows the Preventive Maintenance plan developed.

5.6 Implement the tentative Preventive Plan and followed the calendar as per plan. Collect the new failure data and reasons for breakdown and measured the effectiveness of Preventive maintenance on Availability, MTBF and MTTR. Mean time between failures, Mean time to repair and Availability. The mean time between failures measures the reliability of the equipment, by determining how long a machine runs for, before a breakdown or failure occurs. The longer the period between failures, the longer the machine is running for. This provides higher machine reliability and availability. MTBF = (Average Time run between breakdowns) / Total no. failures.

MTTR = Average time required to service the equipment and put it back in operation /total number of failures.

Availability is defined as, A= (MTBF-MTTR)/MTBF

The following Table - 5.8 depicts the Data on Failures. MTBF, MTTR, Availability being calculated based on the past history and present data after implementation of the revised PM plan along with Training programme for Skill up gradation and people involvement through Kaizen activities.
