Item Análisis y medidas de control de las vibraciones mecánicas transmitidas al cuerpo humano para disminuir los riesgos en trabajadores de la empresa Molinos Miraflores(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2024-02) Sánchez Pérez, Jairo Renán; Lascano Moreta, Alejandra MarleneThis work aims to prevent and improve the work environment. The food industry has implemented technological equipment to optimize resources and time; However, the operator who is in contact with these machines is exposed to the emission of mechanical vibrations, affecting physiological health. Companies have production systems, so the machines do not have specific oscillations, but they do generate time, magnitude, and direction to which the operator is exposed. The research was carried out by collecting information through direct observation and technical visits to the main sources of vibration in which the operator carries out each activity. The use of methods of evaluating the risks caused by mechanical vibration exposed in the NTP INEN-ISO 2631 and 5349 standards provide results of exposure to daily vibration to apply the Executive Decree 2393 that focuses on the safety and health of employees and improvement of the work environment. With the results, it was identified that the exposure doses of each operator are tolerable and values less than 1 in type of full-body vibration and vibration by hand-arm system, therefore it is concluded that the exposure doses do not affect the working conditions of the worker. It has been proposed to establish a preventive control plan with records of activities and protective equipment that the operator must use during the working day to reduce exposure to vibrations mechanics.
