Análise de modo e efeitos de falha potencial (FMEA): uma análise multicasos para otimização da manutenção

Abstract

This study concerns the display of these tools, the Mode Analysis and Potential Failure effects (FMEA), greatly used in the industry, which aims to standardize quality through detection techniques defects of origin at the expense of simple disposal of defective products. Accordingly, it will seek to-use FMEA for the maintenance, checking that its principles can improve maintenance, reducing the need for unscheduled downtime. For this purpose a survey on the use of FMEA in the maintenance was carried out, their possibilities, difficulties and main results. This work demonstrated that the FMEA methodology has been used increasingly by businesses, and in this case, the maintenance area, with complete results for failure analysis, its causes and effects. The results achieved, and with few discrepancies show that the FMEA can be used in various contexts of industrial production, as in the analyzed sectors and especially in the maintenance of the companies surveyed. However, as noted, this feature requires a good level of preparation and planning by his executioners, both directly responsible, as the throwing team, because as any FMEA methodology has some limitations and requires adjustments. The FMEA methodology used correctly can play an important role in maintaining as long as carefully planned.
