Abstract
The Lean system is widely used in industrial environments, focusing on methods that seek continuous improvement. Industry 4.0 has emerged through intelligent systems aiming to digitalize processes. The interaction of these philosophies establishes significant synergies, which can significantly contribute to the researchers who wish to improve maintenance assets in organizations. This study provides a theoretical approach and empirical support on how Lean 4.0 enables paths to increase the equipment's availability, highlighting TPM 4.0 and Kaizen 4.0 concepts. The achievement results reached a significant reduction in production losses, leading to organizational transformation and a promoting competitive industrial environment with trained employees.
