Projeto incremental de um equipamento para corte de couro suíno para a fabricação de pururuca

Abstract

This work aimed to optimize a pigskin cutting machine for the production of pork rinds in a small company. The objective was to analyze the equipment in operation at the company and, based on data collected on-site, to correctly dimension the main components in order to improve the company's competitiveness in the sector. Techniques for project management and product development are presented, listing the steps to be followed, such as identifying the client's needs, in order to develop an incremental project. In addition, the current technical standards that must be followed to ensure worker safety and food safety are presented. At the end of the work, a detailed project ready for manufacturing is presented, with the dimensioning of the main components based on the required forces, as well as presenting the improvements made to meet the client's needs, enabling increased production, reduced waste, and compliance with current technical standards.
