Abstract

The participation of Brazil as one of the largest producers and exporters of animal protein in the world, has placed industries in the sector in a fast pace of change and search for the best processes. However, it is not enough to have the best equipment and the best processes, the industry increasingly needs qualified people to obtain the best results, whether in production volume, quality or safety. The TPM program - Total Productive Maintenance, or Total Productive Maintenance, helps companies to seek better results, as it engages all sectors, from the factory floor to top management. Among other benefits, it reduces inventories, reduces equipment downtime, improves product quality and values employee and facility safety. The objective of this work is to apply some pillars of Total Productive Maintenance in a poultry processing line. For this, a study was developed and the implementation of some TPM tools in the industry, the studies were mainly directed towards preventive and operational maintenance. Focus on operator training, which we believe is the foundation of any robust and solid program. After that, the activities of the operators were standardized and the visual controls defined. In the last phase of the study, indicators for the equipment were developed and standardized. The results obtained with training and standardization demonstrate the effectiveness of the tools, which despite being an 1971 philosophy, can be successfully adapted and implemented.
