Resumo(s)

The automotive sector constitutes one of the most demanding activities in the global market, since it requires a constant increase in productivity, both in the automobile industry as well as in the companies whose manufacture its components. This sector is currently set within an economic framework where there is a relentless search for costs reduction and an increase in productivity with minimal investment. In order to meet these requirements, companies have sought to optimise their products and processes to ensure higher profits. This study was developed with the purpose of enhancing procedures in the maintenance sector regarding a company which supplies air-conditioning tubes to the automotive sector. The main objective was to increase its machines and equipment availability through the implementation of autonomous maintenance. Due to the undertaken improvements, there was a 10% increase in the monthly indicator of equipment availability on line AA3 at the company where the study was carried out. This, in turn, resulted in an increase of 8% in OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) during the same time period, which was chiefly due to a reduction both in machine breakdown rates, as well as in the MTTR (Mean Time To Repair) on the same line.
