When a machine fails during a shift, everything slows down. Orders pile up. Work gets delayed. Costs add up. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) is a way to stop that cycle. It’s not theory—it’s a practical approach that brings maintenance into everyday work.
Instead of waiting for something to break, TPM puts responsibility in the hands of the people who run the machines. Operators, techs, and supervisors all play a role in keeping equipment running.
Operators clean, inspect, and do light upkeep on their own machines. They’re the first to notice when something’s off—and they’re trained to act early.
Repairs and servicing are scheduled ahead of time—not after something breaks mid-shift. That reduces surprises and keeps the line moving.
When machines are dialed in, you get fewer defects and less rework. Quality improves without extra steps.
Training isn’t just about how to run the machine—it’s also about how to keep it running right. That means fewer errors and faster response when something starts to drift.
TPM starts early—even in how machines are designed. Simple access points, easier repairs, and fewer breakdown-prone components make a difference from day one.
TPM isn’t just about equipment. It’s about fixing process gaps, delays, and repetitive tasks that slow things down.
Regular checks help spot safety issues before someone gets hurt. It’s a natural part of maintenance—not an afterthought.
It includes admin teams, purchasing, scheduling—every part of the operation that supports production should run just as smoothly.
Machines stay up longer when issues are handled early. You spend less time reacting and more time producing.
When equipment stays running, you don’t need to add hours to hit your targets.
Machines that are cared for make better parts. That means fewer defects, less scrap, and happier customers.
When operators take care of their own machines, issues get caught earlier—and fixed faster.
Hazards don’t build up unnoticed. Regular checks catch problems before someone gets hurt.
Emergency repairs are expensive. Scheduled work and fewer failures save money across labor, parts, and downtime.
TPM is easier when you have tools that show you what’s changing—before it causes a breakdown.
Monitory watches your machines and flags early warning signs.
It spots wear patterns and tells your team what to fix before anything fails.
No need to rebuild your setup—Monitory connects to what you already use and pulls everything into one place.
TPM isn’t about adding extra steps. It’s about making everyday work more effective. When everyone takes part in keeping equipment in good shape, production runs smoother—and costs stay under control.
If you're ready to move from reacting to managing, TPM is the right place to start. And if you want a platform that makes it easier to put it into practice, Monitory is built to support your team.
