PLANEJAMENTO DE MANUTENÇÃO PREVENTIVA DA EMPRESA COMERCIAL MACIEL E VIEIRA LTDA, NA CIDADE DE MACHADO-MG

Abstract

Preventive maintenance follows a previously planned pattern, which establishes periodic stops in order to allow the exchange of worn parts for new ones, thus ensuring the perfect functioning of the machine for a predetermined period. The preventive method provides a certain rhythm of work, maintaining the balance necessary for the smooth running of activities. The control of spare parts is a problem that affects all types of industry. One of the goals proposed by the preventive maintenance agency is to significantly reduce inventories. This is achieved by organizing parts replacement deadlines. Thus, investments for the sector are adjusted. If a part of a set that constitutes a mechanism is performing its work irregularly, it will inevitably establish an overload on the other parts that are interacting with it. As a consequence, overload will cause a decrease in the useful life of the others in the set. The problem can only be solved by changing the problematic part in advance, to preserve the other parts. In any industrial system, improvisation is one of the focus of losses. It is true that when improvising, production stoppage can be avoided, but efficiency is lost. The application of preventive methods ensures uniform and safe work.
