Actualización del plan de lubricación del tren tres (3) de laminación, Gerdau Diaco, planta Tuta.

Abstract

In the company Gerdau Diaco Tuta, rolling train three does not have an updated lubrication plan, nor does it have certain formats, which help in lubrication optimization, which leads to implementing a good lubrication plan that will help reduce losses energy, which are presented in the processes. A well-implemented plan will help to avoid premature deterioration of the machines and can prevent errors, reduce energy consumption, improving productivity.

Something very important in planning and implementing an up-to-date and wellimplemented lubrication program, it is a key factor for the steel industry. The correct choice and implementation of this program can mean significant energy savings for the company, a reduction in personnel costs, lubricants and spare parts and a very important factor which is the increase in productivity.

The entire lubrication system of the three rolling mill was updated, we worked on updating all the lubrication formats, these were: Flat Lubrication Letter, Lubrication Graphic Letter, Lubrication Operational Data, Equipment technical sheets, technical sheets Current Lubricants, Sample Point Instructional Formats and the Lubrication Database.

A lubricant identification system was created, it consists of the implementation of an alphanumeric code, it was also implanted with the identification of colors, depending on the degree of viscosity that corresponds to each lubricant, a QR Code system was also added where the code can be scanned and the lubricant information will appear.

The updating of the technical locations of the equipment, machines and systems was developed: The codes of all the equipment in the Utilities area were updated, which includes Train 2, Train 3, Rolling Mill and Steelworks, a process was used for coding in which consisted of making an alphanumeric code

It also supported the update and improvement of various formats such as one of them; Consumption of lubricants per year and the creation of new formats such as the notification of consumption by the lubricating mechanics on duty, which served to improve the lubrication process.
