Abstract

The exploration for improving productivity in the current competitive global environment since customers are becoming more and more quality centered and demands among customers are increased. To meet customer demand industries must work with efficiency oriented. One of the way to increase efficiency and productivity is to increase the OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) of the plant or machines. OEE can be improved by continuous improvement of TPM (Total Productive Maintenance).This review study discusses an application of industrial engineering techniques such as TPM ,OEE. Total productive maintenance (TPM) is one of the most popular maintenance strategies to ensure high machine reliability, maintaining equipment in top working condition to avoid breakdowns and minimize downtimes in the manufacturing process.

Keywords- Total productive maintenance, Overall equipment effectiveness
