	TPM activities are based on six simple principles that improve equipment productivity.
	1) Elimination of minor defects from equipment, as they are the root cause of most equipment failure. 2) Prevention of unplanned downtime by following properly planned maintenance routines. 3) Team work as only cross-departmental teams can address chronic equipment failures and quality problems much more effectively than any single department working alone. 4) Continuous improvement in machine performance, through continuous learning on the part of the users. 5) The time spent in preventive maintenance is more than made up in terms of machine output compared to machines that are only repaired when they breakdown. 6) Technician time required to repair poorly maintained machines is more than that spent on effective preventive maintenance.   5 Stages of TPM Implementation at Anand Audit Formats of TPM   • Stage 1: Audit 1 • Stage 1: Audit 2 • Stage 1: Audit 3 • Stage 1: Final Audit • Stage 2: Final Audit • Stage 3: Final Audit • Stage 4: Final Audit • Stage 5: Final Audit TPM Methodology TPM Training Structure TPM Training Contents TPM Project Library
