asset or process is operating.
Evaluates three process factors: availability, performance, and quality. OEE = multiply
three factors & expressed as a percentage. The objective of OEE is to identify sources
of
loss, waste, and inefficiencies that reduce availability, performance and product quality
(defects).
Corrective actions can then be taken to improve the process.

OEE formula - ANSWERavailability x performance x quality in %

Productive Maintenance - ANSWERpreventive maintenance & maintenance prevention
and design improvement

, Aim of productive maintenance - ANSWERto maximize plant and equipment
effectiveness to achieve the optimum life cycle cost for production equipment.

2 objectives of TPM - ANSWER1. Achieve zero defects, zero breakdowns, and zero
