Redução de tempos de setup: aplicação de troca rápida de ferramentas em indústria de bebidas

The current competitive market requires companies to adapt so that they can meet the needs of customers in an agile manner and aimed at the lowest possible cost in their manufacture, be it a product or service. The Toyota Production System is aimed at higher profits through lean manufacturing practices with reduced spending, smaller lots and inventories, generated by market demand. The variety of products makes the setup of the equipment a critical point and it should be reduced as much as possible so it does not affect productivity. The rapid exchange of tools allows with few actions and a modification that time does not exceed one digit on your total time. In this study, a case study showed that only with standardization and use of cheap improvements made it possible to reduce setup time in bottle labeling machine by 98 minutes for a final time of approximately 10 minutes with little investment, demonstrating the feasibility the displayed and a monthly gain tool in bottles at approximately 120,000, generating a performance gain and budget of approximately R$ 94,000.00 per month

Certificações ambientais para construções civis

Over the recent human history within the last centuries the environmental degradation has been accumulating and growing rampantly causing effects today easily perceived by all. Because of this, today we can say that there is almost a consensus among the world population's concern with the environment in order to seek to minimize these effects immediately in addition to not aggravate the situation for future generations. Thus today it is common to find a wide range of products with this ideal of sustainable commitment in the various commercial areas. The construction industry has a responsibility to be a major cause of these impacts to the environment, so it is also one of the main vectors able to mitigate the degradation of the environment. In order to encourage, oversee and promote the sustainable attitudes within the construction area emerged environmental certifications. In this work it's exposed some of the major certifications for civilian buildings, highlighting the Selo Azul da Caixa that appears as a good choice focused on the Brazilian reality

Documentação química de espécies do gênero Casearia (Salicaceae) de importância ecológica, econômica e medicinal

The Casearia genus (Salicaceae) is well known because of the medicinal use of its species. Among them, a noteworthy one is the C. sylvestris specie because it already has studies concerning its antiproliferative and/or cytotoxic activity in tumor cells. Furthermore, this specie is popularly used against snake bites, in gastric ulcers treatment and as anti-inflammatory. As well as this, there are other species from this same genus which have been poorly studied, such as the following species: C. decandra, C. grandiflora, C. javitensis, C. arborea, C. lasiophylla and C. ulmifolia. However, several biological activities have been reported for them. In this context, the aim of this project, besides of contributing to the Casearia genus studies, is to study those six species through the analysis and documentation of their leaves' chemical composition (aqueous, ethanolic and hexanic extracts), using analytical separation techniques coupled with spectroscopic techniques, such as UHPLC-DAD, GC-MS and NMR 1H, which will assist the identification of new secondary metabolites in this genus. Moreover, another goal of this present work is aiming the bioprospection of substances with medicinal and economical potential and finally promote the systematic study of some biological activities, such as antimicrobial and cytotoxicity bioassays. A wide variety of metabolites was identified in those three types of extracts, being most of them detected for the first time in Casearia genus, highlighting C. lasiophylla and C. decandra for featuring antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.

Modelagem auto-regressiva na previsão de demanda dos produtos de uma empresa do setor químico

Considering the high competitiveness in the industrial chemical sector, demand forecast is a relevant factor for decision-making. There is a need for tools capable of assisting in the analysis and definition of the forecast. In that sense, the objective is to generate the chemical industry forecast using an advanced forecasting model and thus verify the accuracy of the method. Because it is time series with seasonality, the model of seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average - SARIMA generated reliable forecasts and acceding to the problem analyzed, thus enabling, through validation with real data improvements in the management and decision making of supply chain

Formulação de produtos dermocosméticos com aplicação em procedimentos estéticos

O ramo da cosmetologia obteve um avanço nos últimos anos em relação à complexidade e à diversificação de produtos. A indústria passou a investir também em cosméticos para o tratamento da pele saudável, devido à preocupação dos consumidores em mantê-la em bom estado e retardar o envelhecimento precoce, aliado ao aumento do poder aquisitivo da população e da expectativa de vida. A busca pelos tratamentos estéticos reflete essa nova situação e também abre novos canais de relacionamento entre produtos cosméticos e consumidores, de modo que alguns produtos passam a oferecer tratamento profissional, e outros a manutenção dele no dia a dia.Foi desenvolvida uma linha de produtos os quais receberam o cunho de cosmecêuticos, termo que, apesar de não possuir uma definição legal, está sendo utilizado como apelo mercadológico pelas empresas para se referirem aos cosméticos que possuem ativos que oferecem maiores benefícios e maior eficácia no tratamento da pele. Os produtos da linha envolvem itens de uso profissional, como os produtos para a limpeza de pele profunda, e produtos home care que são fundamentais para o tratamento da pele no dia a dia; todos foram desenvolvidos a fim de promover os fatores fundamentais de uma pele saudável: limpeza, hidratação e fotoproteção.
