IMPLEMENTATION OF MOBILE MAINTENANCE CONCEPT IN FORGING SHOP: A CASE STUDY By Vinayak
Abstract
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) implementation has been done from many years around the world and in Indian industries TPM implementation is a very difficult job. This strategy decreases the breakdown time, various losses and increase the availability, performance and quality rate. In the moving and competitive world, reliability is the major factor for performance and profitability of production plants. The aim of this research work is to introduce the new concept of Mobile Maintenance in small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs). The perspective of study was to analyse the effect of mobile maintenance with respect to ABC Company through overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and validate the results by multi attribute decision making. In this company, improvements in range of 9-24% in production, 16-37% in breakdown time, 12-29% in rejection and 11-30% in OEE of eight machines were achieved by implementing mobile maintenance concept. The results were validated by Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), VIKOR method and significance of OEE was checked at 5% level.
