Estudo de caso: indústria 4.0 comprovando rentabilidade da aplicação

Abstract

The present work was developed in the framework of the discipline of Final Work II from the 5th year of the Electronics Engineering course at the Federal Technological University of Paraná - Campus Ponta Grossa. This work is concentrated in the study of maintenance strategies and in the newest industrial revolution, known as Industry 4.0, as well as to show the viability of application in large companies. The objective is to contextualize this revolution and demonstrate what are the key competitive aspects and the great impact on the final product and in the maintenance. It is also important to point out that this topic is new, therefore is subject to continued changes. The application of this study shows itself variable and very promising, because whatever are the new technologies, they will be able to be implemented causing constantly improvements. The main focus of this study is to approach the aspects of the newest industrial revolution, as well as establish the basic requirements to evolve between the actual and the future maintenance, reminding that, to consolidate this evolution, the industrial environment has to satisfy preconditions that enable the fulfillment of the technologies. For better understanding, a case study was used to exploit an occurrence in a Brewery, that is considered an industry of the future, optimizing even more the results obtained with the application of the studied technology.
