Total Productive Maintenance Concepts

This video tutorial covers Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), a comprehensive approach to equipment maintenance aimed at achieving perfect production. It explains the six stages of TPM, the 5S Methodology, and the 8 Pillars of TPM, which focus on proactive and preventive techniques to improve equipment reliability. The video also highlights the advantages of TPM, including fewer breakdowns, a safer workplace, and better overall performance.
