Autonomous MaintenanceĪutonomous Maintenance is a process from TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) for improving machine OEE by engaging operators to complete routine maintenance, inspection, and lubrication activities. It often uses green/yellow/red colors to indicate status. AndonĪndon is an indicator above production line to signal production conditions. All TimeĪll time refers to every minute of every day - 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week. A variation of the calculation uses Actual Cycle Time instead.

It is used in calculating OEE Performance. In OEE, calculated as Total Count divided by Run Time. Actual Run RateĪctual Run Rate is the actual rate of production, when it is running. A variation of the calculation uses Actual Run Rate instead. In OEE, it is calculated as Run Time divided by Total Count. Standardize: document standards for the areaĪctual Cycle Time is the actual time to produce one part.5SĥS is a Lean Manufacturing process that creates an organized work area.

Start with a problem definition, and keep asking “why” until the root cause is uncovered. 5 Why Analysis is a simple process originally created by Sakichi Toyoda at the Toyota Motor Company for identifying the root cause behind a particular problem.
