Estudio de tiempos y movimientos como base para la mejora de la producción en la empresa Máster Fibra

Abstract

This research project was developed at Master Fiber company and starts from the need of the company to standardize fiberglass parts manufacturing processes, among this bus dashboard production, among which different problems as unnecessary movements, excessive travel distances and bottlenecks within production stand out are arised. A study of bus dashboard model with the highest demand manufacturing process was carried out, which was obtained from the company's sales history and ABC graph application, in addition, flowcharts, analytical diagrams and route diagrams that facilitate understanding of production process. Time and motion study was carried out to obtain standard time of productive activities in manufacturing process of selected board with ABC graph, later, production capacity of company was calculated, this for the purpose of Suggest process improvements. As a result, standard time of all the activities that are part of production process of the bus dashboard with the highest demand during the year 2021 was obtained, with this information calculation of production capacity at company and lines balancing was developed in this process, this the optimal theoretical number of workstations was determined, and a redesign of the production area was developed, to reduce the process transfer distances. With the results, the current situation of the bus board manufacturing process with highest demand within the Master Fiber company was made clearer, information that will be very useful for the approach of improvements within the company.
