The Key Indicators to Judge Machine Performance MTTR, MTBF & OEE
It is a typical notion that only the top
management uses performance indicators to monitor the organizations however,
indicators are likewise used by all levels of maintenance department as a tool
to carry out their day to day assignments. MTTR, MTBF, OEE are the most common
generic maintenance function indicators used in the industry.
Machine performance measurement, also known as Asset management is a key territory of focus for the senior management where indicators are used to judge machine performance. Indicators also form a key part of the workflow of middle management to understand, analyse and present relevant information about machine performance and whether targets are being achieved or if the flow of work is being obstructed by failures.
Middle management of organizations takes initiatives with the support of their senior manager to execute TPM initiatives to get machine maintenance tasks on track. These initiatives are implemented to communicate positive maintenance guidelines to the workers. Another key fact to keep in mind while developing such methods is to think of the audience first; who is going to be affected by this analysis and whether they will be able to understand and cause an actual tactical improvement for the organization and its productivity and efficiency by improvement of machine maintenance performance.
With the help of TPM weekly review of initiatives and assessment of its effect on the basis of performance indicators is carried out which is an essential trait of machine maintenance. Weekly toolbox meetings discuss the effect that has been observed over the last week in terms of reduction in MTTR and observation of MTBF.
The daily machine maintenance data can be further summarised or used to create a weekly report to understand and control machine maintenance performance. The ultimate objective is to streamline the maintenance programme and entirely eliminate failure to endure zero wastage of valuable resources due to machine breakdown and accidents.
