Abstract(s)
A necessidade, por parte da indústria, para a utilização de equipamentos estudados e projetados à medida das suas carências, no que diz respeito a custo, espaço, capacidade de manutenção e recursos, é cada vez mais elevada. Através da criatividade dos projetistas, esta situação pode ser facilmente alcançada. Analisando algumas operações verifica-se que algumas ferramentas, quando associadas ao equipamento, podem aumentar substancialmente a produtividade. Este trabalho foi desenvolvido em torno desta questão, a necessidade de um equipamento feito à medida para a retirada de tubos de uma máquina de teste hidrostático localizada num espaço reduzido e com um desnível de cotas no piso, capaz de formar atados nos formatos hexagonal e quadrado. Foi projetada uma nova empacotadora, diferente das atualmente implementadas, com um número reduzido de mecanismos, com o intuito de diminuir o risco de avarias. Para além disso, o fosso localizado na zona de implementação foi benéfico para o aproveitamento da força gravítica que contribui para o deslocamento dos tubos ao longo da máquina. O sistema é automatizado, sendo operado por instrução pelo operador consoante o tamanho do atado a formar. O desenvolvimento desta solução, que será implementada, contribui para a sustentabilidade do negócio da empresa, bem como, uma vantagem económica, dado que o material utilizado é da empresa.
The need, on the part of industry, for the use of equipment studied and designed to suit its needs, regarding cost, space, maintenance capacity and resources, is increasingly high. Through the creativity of designers, this situation can be easily achieved. Analyzing some operations, some tools, when associated with the equipment, can substantially increase productivity. This work was developed around this issue, the need for a custom-made equipment for the removal of pipes from a hydrostatic test machine located in a reduced space and with an uneven elevation in the floor, capable of forming bundles in hexagonal and square shapes. A new pipe bundling machine was designed differently from those currently implemented, with a reduced number of mechanisms in order to reduce the risk of malfunctions. In addition, the moat located in the implementation zone was beneficial for the use of the gravitational force that contributes to the displacement of the pipes along the machine. The system is automated, being operated by instruction by the operator depending on the size of the bundle to form. The development of this solution, that will be built later on, contributes to the sustainability of the company's business, as well as an economic advantage, since the material used is owned by the company.
