Estudo do sistema de gestão da manutenção e aplicação do retrofit em uma multinacional na produção de maquinários agrícolas

Abstract

Agribusiness is considered one of the pillars for the Brazilian economy, representing ¼ of Brazil's Gross Domestic Product in 2023. With the growth of agribusiness there has been an improvement in advances in the manufacture of agricultural machinery, playing a fundamental role in the modernization and increased efficiency, generating the growth of this equipment on national soil. Therefore, this work presents a study regarding the maintenance management system, and the application of Retrofit as a tool in an agricultural machinery manufacturing unit. The integration between Total Productive Maintenance practices, which is based on continuous improvement, and Reliability Centered Maintenance, which uses FMEAs to characterize the unit's assets, is presented. In this context, this work also presents the implementation of the Retrofit model for Hypertherm's EdgePro CNC plasma cutting equipment from the company located in Indaiatuba. It was possible to notice a cost reduction of 76.3% when using Retrofit compared to purchasing new equipment.
