Géniop and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)

Why improve productivity ?

The globalisation of the economy, the logic behindthe direct logistics flow and the rapid turnaround times involved, the need for increased productivity, are all factors driving more and more companies to continuously optimize their production processes. To achieve this companies need production facilities that are more flexible and more responsive and that provide an increased level of availability (reduced downtimes and breakdowns, quicker tool changes…) while reducing WIP inventory (reduced contingencies).

TPM as a tool for progress

TPM is an approach that was invented in the United States and developed in Japan in the 1980s. TPM is based on the following idea: “Instead of investing in expensive and complicated equipment, we need to increase as much as possible the use of the existing machines and their performance in producing quality”.

TPM is a set of simple methods like the FIVE/S or the SMED and principles of measurement. For the last 2 years, the AFNOR standard 60-182 proposes standardized productivity indicators. It is applied today in many companies where it has produced, sometimes spectacular, gains in productivity within a very short period of time.

Géniop and TPM

At the origin of each improvement, there is a precise and detailed analysis of all the causes of stoppages, slowdowns and the inferior quality of the goods produced.

Collecting information about the production process can be complicated and costly, to the point that potential gains in productivity become inaccessible. The tools developed by Géniop automate the collection of data, make the analysis of data easier, and allow industrialists to concentrate on carrying out their strategies.

Examples of services

 - Productivity audit of a production line for bagging products (identification of the lead machine and the bottleneck machine, recommendations for improving productivity on the line)

 - Assistance in the analysis of productivity measures and implementation of a plan to improve productivity.

 - Assistance and training of production operators in best practices, developing autonomy and auto-analysis of production performance.
