How much efficiency and money are you losing because your machines are not
in base running condition?
How far out of base conditions have your manufacturing equipment deviated
over time?
How frustrated are your employees because they want "new machines" since
your current machine are "old, don't work right anymore, and outdated"?
You may believe that the only solution is to run out and spend 10's or even
100's of thousands of dollars on new machines because your current stuff
just isn't getting it done. But have you tried the old proven TPM method of
bringing your machines back to base condition and establishing centerlines?
This method could end up saving you tons of money and could help build
capability within your workforce to better maintain your equipment for
optimal efficiency.
This spreadsheet is a great tool for logging and measuring performance
against centerlines once the machine is brought back to base condition.
Centerlines are a system of measuring distance, pressure, torque,
temperature, or other variables in relation to other known fixtures.
For example, if at base condition, a shaft should be positioned 10 inches
from the product for a given SKU, this would serve as your centerline. As
equipment wears down, the setpoint for this shaft would deviate from its
original centerline. This tells you that the machine is wearing from it's
base condition and further maintenance is required.
You can establish centerlines just about anywhere in the factory and for
any variable on a machine. Then use these metrics as indicators for when
additional maintenance is required so that your machines are always
operating in peak condition. The result is increased efficiency, less
downtime, shorter lead times, more reliable production, and happier
employees.
Use this spreadsheet with others in your Toyota Production System (TPS) or
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) toolbox. It is a huge step toward
creating a culture of Autonomous Maintenance (AM) and Continuous
Improvement.
