OEE - A Tool to Measure the Effectiveness of TPM Implementation in Industries - A Review

This paper aims to study the measurement of effectiveness of TPM implementation in manufacturing and service industries. Here an attempt was made to discuss the previous literature related to the TPM implementation and OEE measurement. The review was done based on a range of journals related to TPM, published in last 10 years, specifically related to TPM implementation and OEE improvement. These TPM papers were studied for the improvement in performance of the equipment by TPM implementation. In this review, OEE is found to be an effective tool for measuring the effectiveness of TPM implementation in most of the industries. It was found that improving Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is one of the main benefits in TPM implementation and it has been discussed in most of the literature. Improvement in OEE can be observed through the improvement in the availability, performance rate and quality rate as a result of TPM implementation. The review revealed that OEE improvement can be achieved by TPM implementation. Citation: Dr Ramachandra C G, Srinivas Institute of Technology; Prashanth Pai M ,P.A College of Engineering; Dr. T. R.
