Abstract

This work focuses on adapting an external oil transfer pump to improve the maintenance efficiency of truck lift platforms. The motivation behind this research arises from the need identified in the maintenance operations of these equipment, often faced with challenges in transferring and handling oil to the truck platform lifting system, resulting in unnecessary product losses and prolonged maintenance time. The main objective of this project is to adapt an external oil pump, which optimizes the maintenance process of truck lift platforms, saving time and reducing oil waste. To achieve this objective, the research explores different pump technologies available on the market, considering the advantages, disadvantages and costs involved. The methodology involves a study of the operation of lifting platforms and the difficulties faced in their maintenance. Finally, an external transfer system was designed and tested with the aim of evaluating its efficiency and functionality. It is believed that this work will not only optimize the maintenance process of truck lift platforms, but will also contribute to reducing oil waste, generating significant benefits in terms of saving resources and time in the daily maintenance operations of this equipment.
