Melhoria de eficiência de máquinas pela metodologia DMAIC em eventos Kaizen

In a highly competitive and globally integrated market, excellence in production processes has become a survival factor, instead of just a differential point. In this context, companies from various sectors have resorted to philosophies and techniques already established in the literature to improve the efficiency of their production processes. This paper discusses aspects and techniques used to improve the production efficiency of a multinational company that manufactures surgical devices to a global market. Through DMAIC methodology, there were found opportunities to improve machines' efficiency by OEE, an efficiency indicator, in Kaizen Events. A case study was conducted to analyze the methodology and to identify good practices and difficulties along the way

Gráficos de T² para o monitoramento de processos multivariados autocorrelacionados

In which refers to statistical process control, the analysis of univariate cases is not enough for many types of company, being necessary to resort to multivariate cases. Besides, it is usually supposed that the observations are independent. However, the violation of this hypothesis indicates the existence of autocorrelation in the process. In this work, by a basic quantitative approach for an exploratory and experimental research, the study target are the multivariate autocorrelated control charts, using Hotteling T². The ARL values were collected by simulations of a computational program on FORTRAN language, with objective of studying the charts properties, in addition to compare with the

Automação em raspadora de pneus utilizando controle numérico computadorizado com controlador lógico programável integrado

This work studies and develops a machine automation for tyre truing. It is discussed industry development, industrial processes automation, tyre-recycling process, advantages of tyre reuse for preservation of the environment and probable gains from the automation of part of the tyre-recycling process. In this text, it is detailed the work done to configure, program and optimize the truing process through automation components as CNC, PLC and drives. Tests and simulations are performed to determine the payback necessary period in productivity and profit gains
