Abstract(s)
Num contexto industrial cada vez mais competitivo e dinâmico, as organizações são
desafiadas em melhorar continuamente os processos produtivos, reduzindo os
desperdícios e aumentando a eficiência. Este trabalho de dissertação surge no âmbito
dum estágio curricular realizado na SODECIA Safety & Mobility – SSM Guarda, S.A, e
centra-se na aplicação dos princípios da filosofia Kaizen como ferramenta de melhoria
contínua, com foco no processo de inspeção de qualidade dum componente metálico
técnico utilizado no setor automóvel.
Através da observação direta no terreno e da aplicação do ciclo Plan-Do-Check-Act
(PDCA), foi possível identificar ineficiências na linha de produção e propor uma solução
prática baseada na automatização parcial da inspeção, através dum sistema de visão
artificial. A implementação da solução inclui ainda a reorganização do posto de trabalho
segundo os princípios Lean, a eliminação de desperdícios, e melhoria da ergonomia do
posto de trabalho.
Os resultados obtidos demonstram melhorias significativas ao nível da produtividade,
qualidade e utilização de recursos humanos, reforçando a importância da melhoria
contínua como pilar estratégico para a competitividade industrial. O trabalho contribui
também para a consolidação de uma cultura organizacional orientada para a eficiência,
o envolvimento dos trabalhadores e a inovação prática.
In an increasingly competitive and dynamic industrial environment, organisations are challenged to continuously improve their production processes by reducing waste and increasing efficiency. This work was developed within the scope of a curricular internship at SODECIA Safety & Mobility – SSM Guarda, S.A., and focuses on the application of Kaizen philosophy principles as a continuous improvement tool, specifically targeting the quality inspection process of a technical metal component used in the automotive sector. Through direct observation on the shop floor and the application of the Plan-Do-CheckAct (PDCA) cycle, inefficiencies were identified in the production line, leading to the proposal of a practical solution based on the partial automation of the inspection process using a vision system. The implementation also included the reorganisation of the workstation according to Lean principles, the elimination of waste, and ergonomic improvements. The results demonstrated significant improvements in productivity, quality, and resource utilisation, reinforcing the importance of continuous improvement as a strategic pillar for industrial competitiveness. The project also contributed to strengthening an organisational culture focused on efficiency, employee involvement, and practical innovation.
