Preventive Maintenance Policy to Improve the Effectiveness of XYZ Machine

Abstract

PT ABC which is a manufacturing company that produces steel pipes. The last period there was an XYZ machine that often downtime and disrupted the production process. The breakdowns indicate the ineffectiveness of machine. It was necessary to identify and analyze the problems that occurred and the factors that caused the problem. Measurement of machine effectiveness dan it caused is carried out using the OEE method. To avoid the recurrence of machine ineffectiveness, machine maintenance is carried out in a preventive manner according to the spare parts classification (there are 3 classifications of spare parts based on price, namely A under Rp.250,000, B between Rp.250,000 -Rp.500,000 and C above Rp.500,000). The results obtained for the average value of OEE for 1 year is 68%, which shows a value below the ideal OEE standard (85%) and needs to be evaluated. From the calculation of the largest losses value is in the reduce speed losses factor of 67%, it is necessary to minimize the difference in ideal cycle time with actual time (operation time). The best scheduling results is using the preventive maintenance policy method with the schedule of maintenance are: for classification A spare parts the maintenance every 3 months, class B every 5 months, and class C every 6 months.
