Item Redução do Tempo de Setup do Processo de Aquecimento de Moldes de Fundição de Baixa Pressão com Utilização de Resistência Tubular: Um Estudo de Caso Aplicado à Indústria de Motocicletas(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016) THOMAZ, Elton de Jesus; CARVAJAL, Tirso Lorenzo ReyesThis study aims to reduce the setup time in the mold heating process used in low-pressure casting of motorcycle cylinder heads. The methodology applied was a case study, with the implementation of a tubular resistance electric heater. The results showed a 44.45% reduction in setup time, elimination of operator safety risks, improvement in the quality of produced parts, increased mold lifespan, and reduction in operational costs in the order of millions of reais per year. The relevance of the study lies in the application of the proposed improvements to other industrial processes involving mold heating.
