In november of 1999, a group of universities researchers and professors embraced the idea of creating a conference focused on manufacturing processes, considering that its first edition should take place in Paran\u00e1 Estate due to the automobilist pole recently implanted in the region. This proposal was materialized in the same year in the city of \u00c1guas de Lind\u00f3ia \u2013 SP, during the XV Brazilian Congress of Mechanical Engineering (COBEM). The formal support of The Brazilian Association of Engineering and Mechanical Sciences \u2013 ABCM, and the creation of the National Committee of Manufacturing Engineering, as a part of ABCM, constituted the fundamental factors to the first conference organization.<\/p>\n
After a meeting in February 2000 in the Federal University of Paran\u00e1 (UFPR), in which were present the professors \u00c1lisson Rocha Machado (UFU), Sin\u00e9sio Domingues Franco (UFU), Jos\u00e9 Divo Bressan (UDESC), Rolf Bertrand Schroeter (UFSC), Marcelo Teixeira dos Santos (SOCIESC), Paulo C\u00e9sar Okimoto (UFPR), Dalberto Dias da Costa (UFPR), Walter Casas (UFPR), Ana Sofia D\u2019Oliveira (UFPR), Paulo Victor Marcondes (UFPR), Ramon Cortes Paredes (UFPR), Silvio Francisco Brunatto (UFPR), Nixon Malveira (UFPR), Ossimar Maranho (UTFPR), Walter Luis Mikos (UTFPR), Milton Luiz Polli (UTFPR), Paulo Andr\u00e9 Beltr\u00e3o (UTFPR), Ricardo Torres (PUCPR), Gilmar Ferreira Batalha (USP), S\u00e9rgio Tonini Button (UNICAMP), and Alexandre Mendes Abr\u00e3o (UFMG), a formal proposal to create the National Committee of Manufacturing Engineering was sent to ABCM. This committe was then composed by the following professors: \u00c1lisson Rocha Machado, Jos\u00e9 Divo Bressan, Paulo C\u00e9sar Okimoto, S\u00e9rgio Tonini Button, Gilmar Ferreira Batalha, Marcelo Teixeira dos Santos, Walter Lindolfo Weingaertner and Theophilo Moura Maciel.<\/p>\n
The first decision of the recently created committee was to propose to the organization of the 1st Brazilian Manufacturing Engineering Congress (COBEF), for the event to take place in April 2001 in Curitiba. Since then, the COBEF has been established as the most important event of Manufacturing Engineering in Brazil, being held biennially in different locations of the country: Uberl\u00e2ndia (2003), Joinville (2005), \u00c1guas de S\u00e3o Pedro (2007), Belo Horizonte (2009), Caxias do Sul (2011), Itatiaia (2013), Salvador (2015), Joinville (2017), S\u00e3o Carlos (2019) and Curitiba (2021). Its 12th edition, in 2023, will take place in Bras\u00edlia, Federal District. In this new edition, the conference will be in hybrid (partially in-person and partially virtual), and it will be organized by the Departments of Mechanical Engineering of Bras\u00edlia University (UnB).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
