TQM

If a technician works an 8-hour shift and spends 3 hours arranging tools and spare parts, and travelling to the job location, the remaining 5 hours spent directly on equipment maintenance is considered Wrench Time. The thing is, wrench Time does not include break time. Other activities, such as collecting tools, arranging spare parts, and travelling to the job location, are necessary to complete the work, but they are not included in Wrench Time. Proper planning helps maintenance technicians work more efficiently during repairs.
In our plant, two stamping stations are available. The stamping station is a critical area where a 55 MT coal cake with a bulk density of 1.17 kg/m³ is prepared using a hammering mechanism. The coal is compacted by dropping hammers up and down inside a closed box.
