Improvement of productivity in a Litobarnizado process

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to present a proposal for improvement in the production process area Litobarnizado in a processor of container for canned food, which was selected by the method of Weighted Sum Value Function based on the efficiency of each lines for making the decision. During work, an analysis of the selected line was made; with time and motion study, flow chart, Pareto charts and Ishikawa. With this, the different problems presented in the production process was determined. Similarly, once we identified the problematic proceeded to develop each of the proposed improvements, explaining briefly, indicating the purpose of its implementation. Finally, depending on the proposed improvements the time estimate would be reduced in each of the activities in the varnishing of the sheets and optimize the use of forklift appeal was made, later to estimate the savings that would be generated and investments required to implement sustained improvements in the economic evaluation.
