High downtime is a critical issue affecting production efficiency, operational reliability, and maintenance costs. Operational data from January to March 2025 showed an average downtime of 143 minutes per month, indicating the need for improvement. This study aims to reduce downtime in kiln machines in the ceramic industry through the implementation of a limit switch-based alarm system, using a qualitative-descriptive approach combined with the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) method and root cause analysis using pareto and ishikawa diagrams. The analysis identified that the primary cause of downtime was the absence of an early warning system for abnormal conditions in the cooling box section, addressed by installing a limit switch sensor to provide real-time alerts to operators. The results show a significant reduction in downtime from 143 to 21 minutes per month within eight months of implementation, demonstrating that simple engineering modifications can enhance system responsiveness, reduce production losses, and improve operational efficiency.
