Abstract—When a factory decides to implement ecomaintenance for the first time, there is a test that the factory needs to do to examine the initial performance of a system that it uses. As an important component of a factorys system, machine tools receive a special concern to do it. The complexity of machine tools becomes the main reason to employ a holistic approach to assess the performance of the machine tools. The mechanical, metrological and electrical characteristics of machine tools are used to assess their operational performance using a holistic approach. After these machine tools have been tested mechanically with SNI and ISO Standards, their electrical and metrological characteristic are then tested by conducting several mechanical testing using a number of research samples. The results of the initial performance test found that there are 2 (two) machines in a good-condition category, 3 (three) machines in a fair-condition category and 1 (one) machine in a poor- condition category .The initial operational performance of machine samples will be used as a reference for the measurement of the success of ecomaintenance program implementation in a factorys system.

the machine before being maintained and determining a reference to find out the achievement level of the applied maintenance process. The success level is shown by some performance indicator which is determined in the initial maintenance process. These indicators will show how the impact of maintenance treatment toward machine performance after the maintenance system is applied by evaluating its performance in a certain period. The performance assessment is done either for new machines or old machines. The procedure of ecomaintenance maintenance into a system can be seen in Figure 1.

  1. INTRODUCTION

    Ecomaintenance is a concept of maintenance with new paradigm related to economic values obtained by well- maintained machines and their contribution toward environmental conservation. The effect is the machines are reliable, so that they create a stable, energy saving and pollutant-free production system. The well-maintained machine has higher economical value because it can produce smoothly and avoid opportunity loss to get profit due to machine error. The product quality is more maintained because the process of production runs as planned. Different from conventional maintenance, ecomaintenance does achievement level measurement of machine performance by comparing the initial performance of the machine to the machine performance in a certain period after the system is applied. Ecomaintenance measures the level of its success by viewing the energy saving occurs as the indicator of the

    amount of energy cost saving and pollutant reduction which can be done [1].

    When ecomaintenance is implemented, the initial performance assessment is conducted. As the main component of a manufacture system, the performance assessment is also done to machines. It aims at finding out the initial condition of

    In a general way, OEE application is limited in semi- automatic and full-automatic assembling, so that the application on manual assembling often finds difficulties [2]. The measurement of full machine performance is needed,

    based on the calculation of all losses occur [3]. Special approach to machine tools in performance assessment is necessary to be done because machine tools, is generally complex machines with many variances. The holistic approach which is applied when doing machine tools performance assessment is based on three main characteristics,

      1. mechanical characteristic, metrological characteristic and electrical characteristic. The three characteristics have impacts on machine power performance, cutting rate, accuracy and reliability [4]. The mechanical characteristics of machine tools can be seen in the way of calibrating according to the recommendation from OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)-produced factory or determined standards (ISO

        , DIN, JIS and so on). When the mechanical characteristics decrease or be disrupted, the machine cannot produce the components according to dimensional accuracy and geometrical accuracy determined according to initial production of the machine. The decrease of mechanical characteristics will also impact on the decrease of electrical performance and power consumption increase from it should be in the indicators. This impact also occur on metrological criteria, i.e. the decrease of configuration quality of surface or the increase of product roughness resulted in vibration while machining process.

  2. METHODOLOGY

    The steps of the initial performance assessment of machine tools will be done as described in flowchart in Figure 2.

    This impact also occur on metrological criteria, i.e. the decrease of configuration quality of surface or the increase of product roughness resulted in trilling while machining process.

    The initial research results of [5] and [6], it is found that there is adjustment between maintenance system received by machine and consumption pattern of machine energy as the effect of machine electrical performance. In the milling machine of M1, M2 and lathe machine of B1, it seems that there is power needed for an for the lowest machining if compared to the same machines. These three machines are maintained according to the procedure so that they will be more energy saving. On the other hand, in the M3 milling machine and B2 lathe machine although the machine is maintained, there are some conditions which are not in accordance with the procedure, so that the electrical performance decreases and the machine power consumption becomes higher than it should be. In B3 lathe machine, the machine will be treated or maintained for last years, as a result, the electrical performance decreases, and the power consumption is wasteful. Furthermore, according to OEE (Overall Equipment Evaluation) formulation, machine electrical performance value obtained will be multiplied with stock value and quality value of the product so it is obtained that the operational performance value of the machine. The operational performance value can be seen in Table 12.

    TABLE XII. OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE VALUE FROM THE TEST

    Operational performance of the machine assessment also considers the results of observation and comparison with real operational performance of the machine in the factory. Based on the results above, then 3 categories of operational performance of the machine are determined. They are machine with KO value > 80%, with good operational performance, in good machine condition. The machine with the value of 50%

    < KO <80% has medium operational performance, medium machine condition. The machine with KO value <50% is the machine whose less good operational performance and in less good condition.

    Based on Table 12, it is found that machines whose high performance value are M1 milling machine whose KO value of 100%, M2 milling machine whose KO value of 97%, and B1 lathe machine whose KO value of 82%. The three machines are in good condition. The two lathe machines, B2 whose KO value of 61%, and M3 milling machine whose KO value of 53%, are medium condition machine. B3 lathe machine has KO value of 4% is less good operational performance machine and it is in less good condition. Furthermore, the data obtained will be used as the reference in planning and implementing ecomaintenance strategy. The substitution of some components which are worn out or in less good condition will be rearranged.

  4. CONCLUSION

Operational performance assessment approach holistically is a systematic method but it is easy in assessing the performance of machine tools. In general, the machine tools have complex design to support multifunction tasks so the assessment with general OEE method is less appropriate. However, by using holistic assessment covers mechanical, electrical, metrological characteristic assessment can be more accepted. The three characteristics obtained can describe the electrical availability, quality and performance of the machine and they become input to find out operational performance of the machine. The operational performance of this machine becomes the input in determining appropriate maintenance strategy in ecomaintenance machine tools system.

Based on the results of testing on 6 (six) machine tools above, it can be concluded that there are 3 (three) machines whose good operational performance, i.e. M1 milling machine (CNC milling), (M2) and B1 lathe machine. The 2 (two) machines have medium operational performance , i.e. B2 lathe machine and M3 milling machine whose medium performance, while B3 lathe machine whose less good operational performance.
