Implementação de metodologias na inserção automática de componentes para otimização no processo de SMT: aplicando o método DMAIC

Abstract

This dissertation presents a project developed within a master's thesis in Engineering that was developed in the company AUTOS S/A automotive. Its main objective is to implement the principles that govern lean production, applying improvements using tools and applying methodology that collaborates in studies to identify the root cause of the problem. It was possible with this analysis to define a series of actions analyzing the production processes of the automatic insertion of SMT components (Surface Mount Technology), the need arose to improve the processes in the assembly machines, which resulted in low production, disorganization in the feeders and delay in preparing for changing models. In general, the implemented measures yielded favorable outcomes, resulting in an enhancement of the machines' efficiency for all products. Additionally, there were reductions in Cycle Time, ranging from 7% to 8%, ranging from 32% to 50% in the initial line.
