EFFECT OF EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE ON THE PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF FOOD AND BEVERAGE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES IN NIGERIA.
Abstract
The performance evaluation of equipment maintenance practices in manufacturing industries (Nigerian bottling company (NBC) Benin Plant and BONS Industries Ltd, Enugu Nigeria) was carried out. This was a retrospective study. Records on maintenance of filler machine, Packer/Caser, Blow Mould machine, Monobloc (filler/Capper/Rinser) machines were collected for a period of five years from 2017-2021 using a questionnaire. This questionnaire was designed to capture the cumulative end of the year production and maintenance parameters for the industries which includes: year of manufacture of equipment, year of installation, types of maintenance done on the machine, total hours of failure for the year, year product target, year actual volume of product produced and the quantity of defective product. The machines for NBC were obtained and installed in 2008, and the ones from BONS Industries were obtained and installed in 2014. The world class OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) mathematical model was used to evaluate the maintenance performance. For NBC, the availability rate of filler machine ranged from 93.0% - 96.9%, Performance rate ranged from 66.2% - 129.3% while the quality rate was 99.9% for all the years. For BONS water line, the availability rate of monobloc machine ranged from 86.8%-95.8%, the performance rate ranges from 47.2%-96.1% while the quality rate ranges from 91.8%-93.7%. The approaches used for the maintenance of the machines in NBC were preventive and usage based approaches while the maintenance approaches used in BONS bottled water line were preventive and condition based. The availability rate, performance rate and quality rate were high however performance rate was lower in the year 2020 for both industries. However, all the rates in NBC were better than those of BONS Industries Ltd.
