Preventive Maintenance Checklist towards Effective Maintenance System: A Case Study in Semiconductor Industry

Abstract:

Preventive maintenance (PM) is the basic policy in maintenance system and widely used in companies all over the world. However, its advantages are not always fully received by the company because it is not carried out according to prescribed planning and schedule. This is because of improper implementation of the PM that leads to the major problem of increasing number of machine downtime. One of the reasons for the problem is ineffective PM checklist used during the implementation. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to reduce the planned downtime for PM by analyzing and enhancing the PM checklist. This is to show the importance of having good PM checklist as it simplified technicians workload and can reduce machine downtime if conducted properly. Consequently, good PM checklist will show the performances of the technicians doing their tasks as well as the performances of the machines to be operated in good operational condition.
