Aplicação de manutenção preditiva em um sistema de descarregamento de caminhões e vagões tanque

Abstract

Its presents a study on the implementation of a Predictive Maintenance in a System for Unloading Trucks and Tank Wagons, using screw pumps driven by electric motor. Were used as references for studying publications about the most modern methods of maintenance, equipment behavior analysis, fault detection and fault occurrence trend by analyzing the operating parameters of the equipment, maintenance management models focusing on engineering maintenance to prevent or minimize the occurrence of failures and production stops. The current focus of the maintenance process is to anticipate failures avoiding its consequences. The system object of the study was the focus of preventive maintenance based on time and had many unplanned shutdowns, causing production losses and delay in the receipt and release of trucks and tank wagons. The use of predictive maintenance allowed the detection of deviations in operational parameters of the equipment, caused both by operating outside the optimal conditions supplied by the manufacturer and the optimum conditions required by the products pumped, as well as failures in the maintenance performed on equipment.
