Abstract(s)
High pressure die casting is widely used in metalworking industry. Many
of the components and devices directly linked to the hot parts are subjected
to severe wear. However, some design updates can enlarge the lifespan of
these components and devices. This paper proposes to show how a
sustainable maintenance can be obtained by focusing resources on the
analysis of the critical problem and its consequent mitigation, whereas
they are originated on the human, machine/process or supplier level.
Design science research (DSR) was the iterative research methodology
chosen to integrate this work. The completion of the objective with the
implementation of this new injection subset concept brought extremely
beneficial results, such as reduction of its consumption, reduction of
acquisition cost and waste generated, and reduction of the intervention
time during maintenance operations, as well as increase in equipment
availability time.
