Redistribución de planta en la empresa textil Creaciones Deportivas Andrés

Abstract

The present research analyzed the feasibility of an appropriate redistribution of the production plant to reduce the time and distance required to develop production batches. The stated objective was to reduce the travel distance between the work areas of the company Creaciones Deportivas Andrés according to the principle of minimum travel distance, based on three stages: First, information was collected, obtaining a total of 6 processes that require a time of 9308.01 s. and a distance of 25.39 m. to develop a batch of 10 garments. Second, using the Guerchet method, it was determined that the physical space of the material resources occupies 75.95%, and the remaining 24.05% is used for the flow of plant operators. Third, by removing unnecessary objects from the design area, the resources were appropriately relocated to carry out the cutting process on the ground floor in a logical sequence, resulting in a time of 8769.16 seconds and a total distance traveled of 21.70 meters. This achieved an efficiency of 17.11% in production capacity. In conclusion, it is determined that, through the correlation of processes by determining their proximity, the new plant layout optimizes the traveled distance by 3.69 meters, equivalent to an efficiency of 14.53%.
