    Class Vocabulary
    TermDefinition
    autonomous maintenance Maintenance that is performed by the machine operator rather than the maintenance staff. Autonomous maintenance includes tasks such as lubricating and tightening machine parts.
    availability The percentage of time a machine is actually able to produce parts out of the total time that it should be able to produce. This number includes breakdowns, setups, and adjustments.
    basic condition The expected good state of repair that equipment should possess in order to produce quality parts in a timely manner. Under TPM, operators are expected to maintain their machine's basic condition.
    breakdown maintenance Maintenance performed on broken machines to restore them to working order.
    cell A specialized grouping of people, machines, and materials. The purpose of a cell is to efficiently produce small batches of parts.
    certification Validation that a person or company has achieved a certain standard. Certification may be awarded by a school, a professional organization, or other governing body.
    continuous improvement Replacing ineffective practices, machines, or other manufacturing components with effective ones to attain ongoing, measurable gains. Organizations must constantly measure the effectiveness of processes and strive to meet more difficult objectives to satisfy customers.
    downtime The period of time when a machine or a factory is not operating and is not producing.
    external customer An outside organization or individual that receives a product or service from the company.
    finishing A process applied to a manufactured part that goes beyond making the part to the correct shape and size. Sanding, heat treating, and painting are examples of finishing.
    Five S A targeted list of activities that promotes organization and efficiency within a workspace. The Five S terms are sifting, sorting, sweeping, standardizing, and sustaining.
    internal customer A department or individual within the company that relies on others to satisfy the external customer.
    International Organization for Standardization ISO. An organization based in Switzerland that develops and publishes standards for its international membership base.
    kaizen The belief that an organization must maintain a focus on change for the better or continuous improvement.
    kaizen event An improvement tool that brings together employees from various departments to examine a problem, propose solutions, and implement changes. Kaizen events usually take place over one or two days.
    lean An approach to manufacturing that seeks to improve product quality and productivity, reduce cost, and eliminate waste.
    maintenance The necessary and basic support and repair of machines. Maintenance includes tasks such as lubricating, adjusting, and replacing parts.
    maintenance prevention Machine engineering and design that is based on preventing the need for maintenance or for ease of access to machine parts so that maintenance may be carried out easily.
    office TPM Application of the principles of total productive maintenance to the administrative areas of the company.
    overall equipment effectiveness OEE. The percentage of equipment's availability, quality, and performance multiplied together.
    performance rate The rate parts are produced divided by the machine capacity. This number includes the number of parts produced in a given time, reduced speeds, idling, and short-term stoppage for jams and other problems.
    periodic maintenance Maintenance performed on a calendar basis.
    planned maintenance Maintenance that is performed purposely and regularly in order to prevent a machine from deteriorating or breaking down.
    predictive maintenance Maintenance performed based on the known and expected behavior, condition, and history of the machine.
    preventive maintenance Maintenance performed while a machine is still in working order to keep it from breaking down. Preventive maintenance includes lubricating, tightening, and replacing worn parts.
    pull system A material management system in which parts are not delivered to machines until they are needed. Pull systems place demands on maintenance to keep machines up and running.
    quality An approach to manufacturing that focuses on customer satisfaction. Quality products conform to specifications, are free of defects, and meet the requirements of their anticipated use.
    quality maintenance Maintenance focusing on tasks that keep machines producing quality, error-free parts.
    quality rate The percentage of good parts out of the total produced. This number includes time lost to defects and the time it takes from startup to normal production.
    safety The practices and policies that a company puts in place in order to preserve the health and well-being of employees, equipment, and facilities.
    six big losses Areas in manufacturing where the greatest amounts of materials and time are wasted. They include breakdowns, setup and adjustment time, idling and minor stoppages, speed reduction, quality defects, and startup losses.
    total productive maintenance A manufacturing improvement method that increases production and reduces waste through continuous attention to the condition of machines and processes. TPM's main goal is to maximize equipment usefulness across its lifespan.
    training Educating and coaching staff to improve or change practices.
