If the preventative maintenance happens during Planned Production Time (rather than during Planned Shut Down) then it is interfering with production and should be counted. This does not mean that you should not do preventative maintenance at that time; it only means that over time, OEE will tell you whether this maintenance results in less overall Down Time, because of fewer "surprises", or more Down Time, because of the lost productivity while maintenance is done.

You can choose any period you want. Most commonly it's based on the working cycle of the factory, i.e. one shift (8 hours or 480 minutes). Other time frames include one day, one job, or even continuous monitoring.

For 125-1000 kVA UPS, the Eaton Electric contract includes provisions for emergency maintenance/preventive maintenance (EM/PM) for UPS purchased from the contract. For UPS sizes below 125 kVA, EM/PM provisions vary depending on the actual manufacturer; however, most manufacturers have a number of EM/PM options commercially available. A centralized EM/PM maintenance contract has been issued by our office for contractor performed maintenance.

Reworked pieces are typically looked at as a completely independent OEE process. It is taken into consideration that time and materials were used in the first pass run that resulted in a part or product that did not meet quality standards but where a part of some value exists. Where the original Ideal Cycle Time may have been 180 seconds, a rework Ideal Cycle Time may be only 26 seconds, for example. A personnel break is not necessarily the same as a process break.

Not really, but you can certainly help your system to operate at peak performance by following a few easy tips:

In OEE, any part that doesn't come out right the first time is a Reject Piece. It's a production issue that needs to be addressed. Your strategy for improving original part quality vs. reworking reject parts is a separate management and financial issue.

With the proper attention, heating and cooling systems can keep you comfortable year-round. Heat pumps and oil-fired furnaces and boilers need a yearly professional tune-up. Gas-fired equipment, on the other hand, burns cleaner and can be serviced every other year. A close inspection will uncover leaks, soot, rust, rot, corroded electrical contacts and frayed wires.

Hot water heaters should be maintained at the intended temperature, above 130 degrees Fahrenheit. Mixed hot and cold water holding tanks should not be used. Proper cooling tower maintenance is essential. This involves regular use of biocides, periodic cleaning of cooling towers, and periodic testing of water for biocide and bacterial levels. Due to a recent court case, standard of care now requires periodic testing of cooling tower water specifically for Legionella.

The catalyst is designed to last 400 hours. If this does not match your maintenance schedule, it would not harm the system or your engine to change out the catalyst while your equipment is being serviced. After 400 hours, the operating benefits from the catalyst will diminish.

Preventive maintenance, both daily and weekly, is easy to perform and requires approximately 5-10 minutes. MCM personnel will train the facility's staff to perform these functions. MCM personnel are available to perform additional maintenance or repairs.

This is not just a case of "pay me now or pay me later." It is a case of "pay me now or pay me considerably more, later," and lose reliability in the process.

Overall Equipment Effectiveness is the measurement used to determine how effective your machine is and is expressed as a percentage. It is made up of three factors; Available time, Performance, Quality and the three factors are expressed as decimal fractions, multiplied against each other and then by 100. This gives a percentage score which when trended over a period of weeks gives a benchmark or baseline which can be improved upon.

From the day the roof is installed, the systems begin to weather. A good preventive maintenance program will do two things: Far too often, roofs are neglected. What once were small and inexpensive repairs turn into sizable and costly expenditures when structural damage and spoilage to tenant interiors occur. This is a program designed for multiple property owners. The program consists of initial inspection of all of the roof areas.

The PM frequency depends on the hydride gas flow rate and processing time. Normally, an electrode can last for a couple of months. Please refer to the Technical Notes. This expression is given to calculate how many runs or the total deposited film thickness the electrode can handle before replacing. If you have any difficulty to figure it out, please call ETC.

If an item is a laboratory standard it is marked as being High Use or Limited Use, it is classified as being a Working, Transfer, Primary Or Secondary, the limit of usage before cal and usage before decommission values are placed in the system. The system will track the usage since the last calibration, the total usage and the last cal date.

Basic preventative maintenance will help promote years of trouble-free use. Some of the basic procedures that should be performed are: Precor Ellipticals - Displays should be cleaned with a damp cloth after each usage. Clean the wheels and ramp with water or a diluted all-purpose cleaner every couple of weeks. On a quarterly basis, a complete cleaning under the front and rear covers should be performed.

Absolutely. In fact, that's the way to go. If we look upon our body as a machine, its plumbing needs to be cleaned out every so often. Chances are if the lymph is clean, nuisance illnesses such as headaches, PMS and hot flashes can be greatly reduced if not entirely eliminated. And when you add the benefits of the pre-recorded CD frequency inputs you have the benefits of a Rife machine as well.
