Therefore, it establishes a system of productive maintenance, covering the entire life cycle of equipment in all the departments of the plant and involves participation of employees from various levels and also which promotes small group autonomous activities. The strategy of maintaining the entire equipment in any manufacturing plant is crucial task for the effectiveness of production volume, but also to estimate its contribution towards improving and synchronizing manufacturing facilitates. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the contributions of TPM approach towards improving manufacturing performance in Hindustan Coca-Cola beverages (p) Ltd (HCCBPL) located at Srikalahasthi, Chittoor district, Andhra Pradesh. The correlation between various TPM implementation dimensions and manufacturing performance improvements have been evaluated for the estimation of overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and Mechanical Efficiency (ME) values in CSD PET line.
