Low Cost Process Modeling for a Manaus Industrial Polo factory
Descrição
Abstract
Through the centuries man has found easier and better ways to produce the goods he needs and
desires. Thus through new technologies through different forms of automation, manual processes of
high physical risk and high financial cost are minimized. The aim of this paper is to show that industrial
automation can be applied aiming at a low cost in its implementation, presenting a fast financial return
time, besides improving the product quality, reducing the production defect rates and consequently
the production increase. Article was based on the automation of a modem assembly cell, where it was
necessary to use four (4) operators to assemble it, the modem had a defect index of 0.12% related to
annual production. The result achieved showed that after the implementation of an automatic
tightening machine, only one (1) operator is required to assist in assembly and one (1) defect rate per
year dropped to 0.02% per year. Industrial automation has been showing companies the power to
become more competitive in the world market. Thus, it becomes essential in the process of using
technologies as a tool to support business management.
