Understanding Total
Productive Maintenance
Definition and Origins:
TPM is a proactive maintenance strategy aiming to
achieve zero breakdowns, zero defects, and zero
accidents.
Developed in Japan in the 1960s by Nippon Denso, a
subsidiary of Toyota, as an integral part of the Toyota
Production System.
Built on the foundation of autonomous maintenance,
preventive maintenance, and proactive employee
involvement.
Objectives of TPM:
Eliminating unplanned equipment downtime and
maximizing overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Reducing defects, rework, and waste through
improved equipment reliability and performance.
Fostering a culture of continuous improvement and
empowering employees to take ownership of
equipment maintenance.

Involving operators in daily
equipment inspections,
cleaning, and minor
maintenance tasks.
Developing operator skills to
detect early signs of equipment
deterioration and taking
preventive actions.
Empowering operators to
contribute to equipment
improvement and participate in
problem-solving.
Autonomous Maintenance
Implementing preventive
maintenance activities based on
equipment manufacturer
recommendations and historical data.
Conducting regular inspections,
lubrication, calibration, and
component replacements to
prevent breakdowns.
Leveraging technology such as
condition monitoring and
predictive maintenance to
optimize maintenance schedules.
Planned Maintenance
Engaging employees in small
group activities (SGAs) to
identify and address recurring
equipment problems.
Utilizing root cause analysis and
problem-solving techniques
(e.g., PDCA, Six Sigma) to drive
continuous improvement.
Implementing equipment
modifications and process
optimizations to enhance
performance and reduce defects.
