Nos dias de hoje, a competitividade e a eficiência são fatores cruciais para a sobrevivência e crescimento das empresas industriais, especialmente em relação à capacidade e flexibilidade de responder às necessidades impostas pelos clientes. Neste contexto, o uso de ferramentas tecnológicas e metodologias capazes de auxiliar na melhoria contínua das linhas de produção e eliminação de desperdícios tornaram-se estratégias fundamentais para garantir a sustentabilidade e o aumento da produtividade dos processos produtivos.
A presente dissertação foi desenvolvida na empresa Körber Supply Chain PT e focou-se na análise e melhoria da linha de produção onde transportadores de rolos e correntes são montados. Através do uso da simulação como ferramenta de apoio à decisão, aliada aos princípios e ferramentas da filosofia Lean, foi possível avaliar e colmatar problemas que ocorrem na realização de certas tarefas e melhorar o desempenho geral da linha, assim como providenciar melhores condições e métodos de trabalho. O trabalho iniciou-se com uma análise detalhada da linha de produção existente, onde foram coletados dados temporais e realizadas observações para identificar desperdícios, ineficiências e gargalos no processo. A partir das informações recolhidas, foi construído um modelo de simulação que reproduz o comportamento da linha de produção e foram mapeados os fluxos de valor do processo, permitindo uma melhor compreensão da mesma. Através desta abordagem e das ferramentas utilizadas, foi possível identificar as áreas mais críticas e contribuiu para a conceção de novas sugestões e aperfeiçoamento de medidas de melhoria já aplicadas. Com base nesta análise, foram propostas e implementadas várias medidas de melhoria na linha de produção baseadas na melhoria de processos, layout, reorganização dos espaços de trabalho e de material, gestão visual, entre outros. Os resultados foram positivos, tanto em termos qualitativos como quantitativos, com uma melhoria significativa na eficiência do processo e organização da linha de produção. Com o uso da simulação, previsões foram feitas para
quantificar o impacto no ritmo de produção após a implementação destas medidas, foi possível verificar um aumento da capacidade de produção semanal até 4 unidades produzidas ou 13% comparando ao estado inicial da linha, comprovando a eficácia das medidas implementadas. Esses resultados sublinham a importância da simulação e das abordagens Lean como ferramentas poderosas para alcançar melhorias significativas para linhas de produção num ambiente industrial, demonstrando a aplicabilidade destas duas abordagens em conjunto.
In today's world, competitiveness and efficiency are crucial factors for the survival and growth of industrial companies, especially concerning their ability and flexibility to meet customer demands. In this context, the use of technological tools and methodologies that can assist in the continuous improvement of production lines and waste elimination has become fundamental strategies to ensure the sustainability and increased productivity of production processes. This dissertation was developed at the company Körber Supply Chain PT and focused on the analysis and improvement of the production line where roller and chain conveyors are assembled. By using simulation as a decision-support tool, combined with the principles and tools of Lean philosophy, it was possible to evaluate and address issues that occur during certain tasks and improve the overall performance of the line, as well as provide better working methods and conditions. The project began with a detailed analysis of the existing production line, where time data was collected and observations were made to identify waste, inefficiencies, and bottlenecks in the process. Based on the collected information, a simulation model that replicates the behavior of the production line was built, and the value streams of the process were mapped, allowing for a better understanding of it. Through this approach and the tools used, it was possible to identify the most critical areas and contribute to the design of new suggestions and the refinement of already applied improvement measures. Based on this analysis, several improvement measures were proposed and implemented on the production line, focusing on process improvement, layout, reorganization of workspaces and materials, visual management, among others. The results were positive, both qualitatively and quantitatively, with a significant improvement in process efficiency and production line organization. Using the simulation models, predictions were made to quantify the impact on the production rate after implementing these measures, revealing a weekly production capacity increase of up to 4 units or 13% compared to the initial state of the line, proving the effectiveness of the implemented measures. These results underline the importance of simulation and Lean approaches as powerful tools for achieving significant improvements in production lines within an industrial environment, demonstrating the applicability of these two approaches together.
