Abstract(s)
Este projeto surge no âmbito do Mestrado em Engenharia Mecânica e Gestão Industrial
da Escola Superior de Tecnologia e Gestão de Viseu (ESTGV) do Instituto Politécnico
de Viseu (IPV), como trabalho final conducente ao grau de Mestre.
O presente projeto foi desenvolvido em parceria com a cooperativa vinícola UDACA,
que se dedica ao engarrafamento e a comercialização de vinhos da região do Dão, no
mercado nacional e internacional.
Os objetivos definidos para o projeto foram sustentados pela filosofia de produção Lean,
e compreenderam a identificação e implementação de melhorias no centro produtivo da
cooperativa, tendo estas sido definidas em conjunto com os responsáveis de produção e
da administração da cooperativa.
O projeto iniciou-se com uma análise ao fluxo produtivo da linha de engarrafamento,
através da qual foi possível diagnosticar que a estação de trabalho de rolhagem era
responsável pela baixa produtividade da linha. Identificada aquela como o posto gargalo,
foram efetuados estudos para uma nova estação de rolhagem, que possibilitasse um
aumento da capacidade produtiva.
Para aumentar o nível de automatização da fase inicial da linha de engarrafamento foi
sugerida também a criação de um protótipo para abastecimento de garrafas. Durante o
desenvolvimento do protótipo foram efetuados estudos sobre soluções existentes no
mercado e de viabilidade económica para que a solução encontrada pudesse vir a ser
implementada no local. Contudo, não foi possível concluir todas as funcionalidades
inicialmente previstas para a estação automatizada de abastecimento de garrafas à linha.
Estas limitações surgiram, quer por razões de falta de recursos financeiros, quer por
limitações dos recursos de software disponíveis na versão de estudante utilizada, quer
ainda por limitações de tempo na ligação e aquisição de equipamento para distribuição de
ar comprimido, não obstante os esforços realizados.
Através da implementação das melhorias sugeridas e com a implementação de um sistema
real à escala, de características análogas à do protótipo construído, foi possível reduzir o
prazo de entrega do produto final ao cliente. Esta melhoria na capacidade de
engarrafamento deve-se à automatização do processo abastecimento à linha de
engarrafamento e da redução do tempo de ciclo das linhas de enchimento.
ABSTRACT: This project is part of the master’s program in Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management at the Viseu School of Technology and Management (ESTGV) of the Polytechnic Institute of Viseu (IPV), as the final work leading to a master’s degree. This project was developed in partnership with the UDACA wine cooperative, which bottles and sells wines from the Dão region on the national and international markets. The objectives defined for the project were underpinned by the Lean production philosophy and included identifying and implementing improvements in the cooperative's production center, which were defined in conjunction with the cooperative's production and administration managers. The project began with an analysis of the bottling line's production flow, through which it was possible to diagnose that the corking workstation was responsible for the line's low productivity. Once this was identified as the bottleneck, studies were carried out into a new corking station that would increase production capacity. In order to increase the level of automation in the initial phase of the bottling line, it was also suggested that a prototype be created for filling bottles. During the development of the prototype, studies were carried out into existing solutions on the market and economic viability so that the solution found could be implemented on site. However, it wasn't possible to complete all the functions initially planned for the automated bottle filling station on the line. These limitations arose either because of a lack of financial resources, or because of the limitations of the software resources available in the student version used, or because of time constraints in connecting and acquiring compressed air distribution equipment, despite the efforts made. Through the implementation of the suggested improvements and with the implementation of a real system at scale, with characteristics analogous to those of the prototype built, it was possible to reduce the delivery time of the final product to the customer. This improvement in bottling capacity is due to the automation of the filling process to the bottling line and the reduction of the cycle time of the filling lines.
