  1. INTRODUCTION

    The reliability of industrial machines is the center of attention for companies to be able to meet the quality and quantity of products required by customers. The reliability level of a machine can be seen from the low frequency of machine failure function, where if the frequency of machine failure is low then the machine reliability will be higher. The decline in machine reliability has a huge impact on machine efficiency and has a poor impact on its ability to provide accurate short-term forecasting for machine operating hours.

    Failure of machine function has a broad loss effect on the company, in addition to the loss of not reaching the amount of production, the company also suffered losses in the form of increased production costs, labor costs, the cost of processing defective product recycling due to damaged machine, wasted energy costs in vain, and etc. This increase

    in cost will affect the increase in the price of products to be sold to customers. In other words, the failure of machine function is one of the causes of the increase of product selling price.

    According to [1], for continious process production process, the recommended treatment system is using Reliability Centered Manintenance (RCM) compared to Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) or Bussiness Centered Maintennace (BCM) method. [2] states that the RCM method focuses on the functioning of the system and directs maintenance efforts in parts and units where critical reliability.

    The object of this research is a company produces cigarette paper products in the form of bobbin (small roll) and ream (sheet of A3 paper). The product generated by 40% is sent to PT. Sempoerna and the rest of the tobacco companies located in Sumatra and Java. The company has 1 (one) machine which is paper machine that operates for 24 hours continuously and is an old machine that operated. Due to the production process at this company is continious process and this research is focused on system function in reducing downtime, hence researcher use RCM method to do repair maintenance system.

  2. LITERATURE REVIEW

    The machines and equipment used by companies today are usually complex and require substantial capital investment. It is hard to imagine when equipment and machines are not maintained. However, very surprisingly in this twenty-first century, there are still many companies that do not seem to realize the potential benefits that await them. They may never consider remedial techniques unless they find equipment problems, at which point they will seek professional help and government organizations, for example, the Manufacturing Institute, the Department of Commerce and Industry [3]. Maintenance is a function that monitors and maintains factory facilities, equipment and work facilities by designing, managing, handling and inspecting work to ensure the functioning of the unit during uptime and minimizing the downtime caused by the damage.

    1. Maintenance Strategy

      According to [4] there are three strategies in machine or equipment maintenance: preventive repair, Corrective repair (day to day) and condition based maintenance.

      The maintenance manager may decide to conduct routine checks or simply perform maintenance after a functional failure of the equipment or machine occurs. However it would be better if all the treatment actions are well done to anticipate the failure of the element or correct the logical defects.

      1. Corrective Maintenance

        Corrective maintenance is an unplanned maintenance strategy, which means maintenance is done after a failure is found. In this case the meaning of corrective is a maintenance action performed in reaction to the failure of the function that occurs. So, the maintenance is in the form of repair or repair of machinery and equipment is done only if the machine or equipment is damaged.

      2. Condition Based Maintenance (CBM)

        Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) is a maintenance strategy that applies visual inspection or through measurement of machine and equipment condition. Treatment actions will be taken if equipment or machinery conditions deteriorate. This is considered to be more cost- effective than previous treatments. Because, treatment actions will be done when the machine condition will deteriorate and the time required depends on the condition of equipment on the production floor. However, this treatment strategy is not yet optimal enough to prevent equipment damage and keep the general economical of equipment longer.

      3. Preventive Maintenance

        Preventive maintenance is a planned maintenance also known as forward care and involves forecasting of maintenance needs. In preventive maintenance, work is scheduled according to the time specified. Preventive can be used to predict a failure and during which period the equipment will fail. This is a care that can be done when the goods are in service. This is a concept that may be more appropriate for equipment that often suffers wear and tear. Wordsworth suggests that planned preventive maintenance is useful if the cost is more efficient, meaning to meet the client's needs from an operational point of view, reducing maintenance incidents requiring repeated requests, there is a dominant work occurrence for the craftsman than the inspection. In the planned preventive maintenance, planning

        1. What is the expected function and standard of performance of the asset in its operation (function)?

        2. In what form can the asset not fulfill its function (malfunction)?

        3. What causes failure (failure mode)?

        4. What happens during a failure (failure effect)?

        5. What are the consequences of each failure (consequence of failure)?

        6. What should be done to forecast or prevent failure (preventive and interval actions)?

        7. What should be done if no suitable preventive measures are found (standard actions)?

        RCM program in general is a program used by the industry

        / factory to maintain the reliability of equipment / facilities in accordance with standard performanceperalatan / facilities in it. A good and effective preventive maintenance (PM) program will be able to create reliability according to performance standards. According to [7] RCM program has three phases / stages, namely:

        1. The stage consists of identifying equipment essential for plant safety, power generation (or production), and asset protection.

        2. The stage consisting of determining the tasks required of PM for the equipment is identified in phase 1. These tasks must go well and effectively.

        3. The stage consisting of the execution of the task specified in phase 2 correctly.

          The reliability function [8] is a mathematical function that shows the relationship of reliability with time. The reliability value is the probability value, and then the value of the reliability function (R) is in the range 0 R 1. It is denoted as the reliability function R (t) of the m system if it is used for unit t of time. The concept of time in reliability is time to failure (TTF). Basically the calculation of reliability follows the function in accordance with the distribution of each component or machine. There are four types of distributions commonly used in the calculation of reliability functions that are weibull, normal, lognormal and exponential.

          If the failure time distribution of a component, subsystem or system follows the Weibull distribution, then:

          1. Equation Weibull distribution function reliability

            and implementation of maintenance work is done to

            anticipate the failure of the facility [4].

            R(t)=

            t

            exp

    2. Reliability Centered Maintenance

    Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) is a logical engineering process for determining maintenance tasks that

      1. Failure Rate Weibull Distribution

        = t 1

      2. Mean Time to Failure (MTTF)

    will ensure a reliability system design with specific operating conditions in a particular operating environment. In other

    MTTF =

    r1 1

    words Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) can be

    defined a process used to determine what should be done to ensure that each physical asset continues to do whatever the user wants to do in the context of the operation [5].

    According to [6] in the RCM process required 7 (seven) questions about the assets or system in conducting the review, as for the question is as follows:

    If the time distribution between system failures follows a normal distribution.

    1. Reliability equation of normal distribution function as follows

    2. Failure rate normal distribution

    3. Mean time to failure (MTTF) MTTF=

    If the time distribution between failures follows the lognormal distribution.

    1. Equality of lognormal reliability distribution function.

    2. Failure rate lognormal distribution

    3. Mean time to failure (MTTF)

    If the time distribution between failures follows the eksponential distribution.

    1. Equality of eksponential reliability distribution function.

    2. Failure rate eksponensial distribution

    3. Mean time to failure (MTTF)

  3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

    Based on the identification of the problem, the factor causing the downtime of cigarette paper production machine due to the failure of the component. With the high downtime, causing the efficiency of paper machine is also low. Priority levels considered to be at high risk for component damage are shown in the Risk Priority Number (RPN) value. RPN is influenced by the seriousness of the effect (severity), the probability of cause causing failure associated with the effect (occurrence), and the ability to detect failures before the detection. The value for each component that has been sorted by priority can be seen in Table 1.

    Based on the FMEA results it can be seen that the most critical components with the highest priority are bearing bush, antifriction bearing, carbon guide, press capter and lock washer.

          Based on the results of the selection of actions for components of paper machines that experience kegegalan in

          cigarette paper production system then obtained some election actions [7], namely:

          1. Condition Directed (CD) is the action taken usually analyze, monitor the condition of a component to determine whether the operation will run lancara or fail. The components included in the selection of these actions are:

            1. Carbon Guide

            2. Rotary Joint

            3. Mechanical Seall ID 24

          2. Time Directed (TD) is the action taken usually includes the replacement and repair of machine components with a certain priority. The components included in the selection of these actions are:

            1. Spring

            2. Bearing bush

            3. Oil Seal ZF 20

            4. Joint R 40

            5. Sleeve Adapter

              Based on the results of RCM approach, to improve the efficiency of the machine is scheduling the replacement of critical components so that the paper machine can work optimally. Scheduling is performed on Time Directed (TD) components, ie Spring, Bearing Bush, Knives In Z 30, Vane Insert, Wear Ring, Press Capter, IE 772 071, Joint V-Ring, Bearing, Lock Nut and Lock Washer. Determine the schedule of replacement of components first with the test distribution using software feat easy. After that calculation of reliability and MTTF (mean time to failure).

              Reliability of each critical component affects the downtime of paper machine to produce cigarette paper. Reliability refers to the ability of the machine or component to perform its functions as expected. The comparison of reliability before and after the RCM implementation can be seen in the graph shown in Figure 1.
