Retrofitting em uma máquina roletadora

Abstract

The significant increase in compettion in the automat ion segment, together with a current context of high import taxes related to foreign currencies, as it makes more and more companies seek to modernize and prevent the exchange of their equipment. The solution is found in the expression "Retrofitting", which is nothing more than the modernization of a machine or process. This paper aims to describe the update performed on machine roletagem, which was inefficient to current standards and requirements. His drop in quality and small product ion were generated by frequent crashes and stops for breaks, given that the operation reused items obsolete and extinct current market. The Retrofitting machine roletadora the crankshaft is made from data measured before and after the modification, in percentage terms the efficiency increased by 29 %, reflecting improvements in communication systems and control. Details of the project are presented so that they can serve as a basis for future adaptations in equipment with precarious situation.
