摘要

目的许多应用于维护的先进技术旨在进行数据分析,而不是直接针对活动的执行。考虑到缺乏以辅助维护活动为重点分析技术使用的研究,本研究旨在调查能够减轻采矿维护活动中人体工程学风险的先进技术的适用性。设计/方法/方法在巴西最重要的矿业公司进行了混合方法研究,观察到三组设备:泵、破碎机和筛网。收集了定性和定量数据,包括对60名设备维护专业人员的结构化访谈,并举办了一次研讨会,评估这些技术在该设备维护活动中的适用性。发现经验证,负载处理器、重量消除器和自动引导车辆技术被评估为能够缓解维护活动中支撑零件和工具重量以及人类牵引的人体工程学问题。研究局限性/含义该研究仅观察到一家公司,此处分析的五项技术在该行业尚未成为现实。实践意义这项研究指导维护经理实施流程改进,结合能够缓解维护专业人员所经历的人体工程学问题的技术。通过这种方式,预计可以减少缺勤人数,改善这些专业人员的工作条件。社会影响采矿活动影响当地经济,对提高生产力和人与工作关系的技术发展至关重要。行业对新解决方案的需求通过与大学研发中心的近似来鼓励当地的技术发展。同时,据观察,这些中心可以帮助形成行动能力,无论是在实施这些技术还是在处理这些技术方面。这种大学与公司的整合,除了有利于采矿业,还有可能将解决方案扩展到不同的供应链,这被证明是一种相关的社会影响。独创性/价值这项研究在理解采矿业(采掘业第一部门)维护活动中使用先进技术方面具有开创性意义。

The applicability of advanced technologies from the traditional industry to mitigate ergonomic problems in maintenance activities in the mining industry
PurposeMany advanced technologies applied to maintenance are aimed at data analysis and not directly at the execution of activities. Considering the lack of studies that analyze the use of technologies with a focus on aiding maintenance activities, this study aims to investigate the applicability of advanced technologies capable of mitigating ergonomic risks in mining maintenance activities.Design/methodology/approachA mixed-method study approach was performed in the most important Brazilian mining company, where three groups of equipment were observed: pumps, crushers and sieves. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected, including structured interviews with 60 maintenance professionals for the equipment, and a workshop was held to evaluate the applicability of these technologies in the maintenance activity of this equipment.FindingsIt was verified that the load handler, weight cancelers and automatically guided vehicle technologies were assessed as capable of mitigating ergonomic problems of the supporting the weight of parts and tools and the human traction during maintenance activities.Research limitations/implicationsThe study observed only one company, and the five technologies analyzed here are not yet a reality in this sector.Practical implicationsThis research directs maintenance managers in the implementation of process improvements, in the incorporation of technologies capable of mitigating the ergonomic problems experienced by the maintenance professionals. In this way, it is expected to reduce the number of absences from work and improve the working conditions of these professionals.Social implicationsMining activities impact the local economy and are important in the development of technologies that improve productivity and the man–work relationship. The demands of industries for new solutions encourage local technological development through an approximation with university research and development centers. At the same time, it is observed that these centers can help in the formation of competences to act, either in the implementation of these technologies or in their handling. This university–company integration, in addition to benefiting the mining segment, has the potential to expand the solution to different supply chains, which proves to be a relevant social impact.Originality/valueThis study is pioneering in understanding the use of advanced technologies in maintenance activities in the context of the mining industry (extractive primary sector).
