RESUMO

The purpose of this work is structuring a sequence of application of a series of production capacity increase techniques mentioned in literature on an equipment bottleneck. This sequence must be placed into practice to increase production capacity of manufacturing lines in lean manufacturing environments. The work was developed through the analysis of the techniques have been found to increase equipment production capacity (applied research) and a sequential procedure to techniques application (action research). This sequential procedure is followed up until the improvement required production capacity is reached. The sequential procedure developed was applied in one line of cellular arrangement in an auto parts company. Research methodologies used were the applied research and research-action. It was possible to observe that matters most contributed to the foundations of this work were the theory of constraints and lean production, in particular the process of focus on five stages of the theory of constraints. It was possible to identify the need of using this sequential procedure when production capacity is insufficient to support the customer demand as when a cost reduction strategy imposes an inability to support the customer demand. Future work can explore the different number of using of each of the techniques presented for each type of equipment. These equipment types are related to complexity, cost, etc. New techniques may arise and be attached to the sequential procedure. This structured way of elevating the restriction in this case the bottleneck manufacturing could be used in different environments works by professionals responsible for these actions for improvement.
