Web Workshop: Improved Product Quality Through Proactive Maintenance
Presented by Kevin Lewton, Vice President, Met Demand Inc.
Fact: Manufacturing is applying technology and the processes are becoming more complicated. Customers are requiring higher quality and proof of sustainability by adopting global standards and requiring conformance to those standards.
This has put a spot light on all Maintenance Activities: Operator PM, Maintenance PM, Cleaning and Inspection Standards, Operating and Set-up Standards, Precision Maintenance, Documentation (CMMS), Problem Solving Process. Maintenance Best Practices are a core foundation to deliver Reliable Capacity® that is achieved by having Reliable Processes, Equipment and People. Maintenance is an integral part of implementing and achieving "Zero Defects". Proper Maintenance will decrease variation in a process and product resulting in higher quality and lower cost production.
Learning Point Takeaways:
1) Define Quality Maintenance
2) How Maintenance Practices effect variation and product quality
3) Discuss the process of getting started and engaging others
