Análise de viabilidade de implantação de um laboratório de fundição para o curso de engenharia mecânica da UFGD

Abstract

The mechanical engineering course at the Federal University of Grande Dourados (UFGD) began in 2014, since then, resources have been sought to improve its infrastructure. Brazil, due to its natural resources, has the possibility of becoming one of the largest castings producers in the world, thus emphasizing the importance of the mechanical engineer trained by UFGD to learn in a satisfactory way, both in theory and in practice, the various methods of the foundry. This work presents an analysis of the feasibility of implementing a foundry laboratory at the Faculty of Engineering (FAEN). Through bibliographic consultations and research on reference laboratories, the basic equipment and materials for the laboratory were defined, as well as its monthly cost and expense. Through the data collected, a minimum investment of R$ 60.464,00 and a monthly expense of R$ 4.099,54 was reached.
