Terminologia da indústria do alumínio

Este trabalho, fundamentado em duas correntes teóricas terminológicas - a Socioterminologia e Teoria Comunicativa da Terminologia, propôs descrever e apresentar sob forma de glossário em uma versão impressa e outra eletrônica a linguagem técnica da ALBRAS Alumínio Brasileiro S.A., a maior indústria de produção de alumínio do norte do Brasil. A coleta dos termos para listagem foi feita a partir de 53 textos especializados distribuídos de acordo com sete áreas operacionais da empresa. Com este trabalho de coleta, buscou-se extrair não apenas os termos técnicos, mas também as definições e contextos de ocorrência dos termos. Para melhoramento qualitativo e quantitativo do repertório escolhido, elaboramos uma listagem com os termos coletados e procedemos com entrevistas, relativas ? s informações sobre esses termos, junto a um corpo de 20 funcionários da empresa. Essas entrevistas tiveram como propósito complementar informações relativas as definições e aos contextos. Esses dados foram digitalizados em um programa computacional chamado Lexique-Pro que automaticamente organizou as entradas do glossário em ordem alfabética. Após uma versão provisória, procedemos com a checagem junto a alguns especialistas da área para ver se as informações relativas as definições e aos contextos estavam de acordo com seus entendimentos. A versão definitiva do repertório possui 640 entradas que representam um amplo universo da linguagem técnica atual da metalurgia do alumínio, embora se compreenda que o trabalho tenha sido exaustivo, não representa a totalidade dos termos técnicos correspondente a esta área de conhecimento. Apresentamos as unidades terminológicas, descrevendo seus funcionamentos por meio de atribuição de definição e comprovando seus usos reais através de contextos. Assim, apresentamos o Glossário Terminológico da Indústria do Alumínio como uma importante ferramenta tanto para os profissionais da área quanto para os demais profissionais interessados pela linguagem desta atividade humana.

Previsão de vendas para uma indústria de equipamentos pesados: seleção de técnicas e análise

The continuous advance of the Brazilian economy and increased competition in the heavy equipment market, increasingly point to the need for accurate sales forecasting processes, which allow an optimized strategic planning and therefore better overall results. In this manner, we found that the sales forecasting process deserves to be studied and understood, since it has a key role in corporate strategic planning. Accurate forecasting methods enable direction of companies to circumvent the management difficulties and the variations of finished goods inventory, which make companies more competitive. By analyzing the stages of the sales forecasting it was possible to observe that this process is methodical, bureaucratic and demands a lot of training for their managers and professionals. In this paper we applied the modeling method and the selecting process which has been done for Armstrong to select the most appropriate technique for two products of a heavy equipment industry and it has been through this method that the triple exponential smoothing technique has been chosen for both products. The results obtained by prediction with the triple exponential smoothing technique were better than forecasts prepared by the industry experts

Identificação de boas práticas e dificuldades do SMED aplicado em uma indústria do ramo de cosméticos

The cosmetic industry has presenting growth in Brazil and one way to support this demand is improving production and reducing waste. Wastes can be related to setup time, which is spent to support demand of product´s mix and volume. One of the methodologies used to reduce setup time is SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Die). This paper aims to describe and analyze the setup process in a production line in a cosmetic industrial branch, before and after the application of SMED methodology, highlighting good practices and difficulties in order to help other companies develop fast setup. The research method used was the case study. From the analysis of the implementation of the methodology on the company which is object from the case study was possible to summarize good practices, such as: the use of pillar E&T to store information about the training on the SMED methodology; creation of a multifunctional teamwork and involving different areas; creation of a “From-To” matrix. Difficulties were identified, such as: high and constant turnover of people who work on the shop floor; lack of discipline in filling the forms and by doing the setup activities that were standardized; lack of financial resources; lack of people´s availability in orer to conduct necessary meetings and trainings. Recommendations for other companies have also been proposed, such as: training of the team involved, before starting the project and a refresher training; standardization of training, forms and documentation of all steps of the project; create a multifunctional team; training after an employee, who is responsible for the setup, leaves the company

Aumento da precisão do controle de estoque: pesquisa ação em indústria de bens de consumo

This work is an action research conducted in an industry of consumer goods, presenting a new model of inventory management in the company's processors. This replacement of the inventory management of the company stemmed from the need to reduce the large number of deviations in the product write off in stock, thereby generating a low accuracy and reliability of data on inventories of processors shown by the company's ERP system. Spending on inventory adjustments could thus be reduced with the implementation of the new model, thus generating a cost savings for the company and thus increasing their competitive potential in the market. In the old system adopted by the company, write off raw material inventory was done automatically by the system for customized transactions by the company.
