Industrialization in Ecuador has been significantly driven by technological advances that benefit various industrial sectors. Among these, cargo vehicles play a crucial role in commercialization, generating a high demand for specific components, such as springs. These mechanical elements are widely used across different industries, particularly in the automotive sector. However, in Ecuador, spring manufacturing processes are typically handmade and lack technical design criteria, making it difficult to meet the growing demand for precision and quality. In response to this challenge, a machine was designed and built for the manufacture of helical springs with inner diameters of 1/2 inch and 1 inch. The objective was to modernize the process and improve production efficiency. Appropriate design parameters were researched, engineering software was utilized for development, and unctional tests were conducted to validate the machine's performance. The study employed an applied methodology that included the selection of mechanical elements, comparisons with existing models, and technical calculations to ensure optimal safety factors. As a result, a machine was developed that can manufacture custom springs with precise measurements tailored to the requirements of the automotive sector, which represents the highest demand. The primary contribution of this project is its support for the growth of Ecuador’s industrial sector by introducing innovative technologies that enhance traditional manufacturing processes. Furthermore, it highlights the practical application of engineering knowledge to address real-world industrial challenges, fostering efficiency and development in the country’s manufacturing sector.
Diseño de un generador de flujo para un dispositivo de asistencia respiratoria de presión positiva de dos niveles (BIPAP)

Nowadays, the need for medical equipment for the treatment of respiratory diseases is growing more and more and the state’s expenditure for the acquisition of the same is very large, so the objective of designing the flow generator of the respiratory assistance devices such as BiPAP; opens the way to be able to manufacture ours at national level thus reducing the budget for the acquisition of these. The Technical Project focused on the design of the generator under conventional parameters of operation, this implies the development of the flow system and the control system in charge of supplying positive pressure with a driver of speed variation of the centrifugal ventilator together with a programmable control board, for the configuration of the treatment that the patient needs; the selection of the manufacturing materials and elements necessary for its operation was carried out. The behavior of the flow generator was analyzed by means of a multiphysical computational analysis, this was very useful since it allowed us to establish the operating range of the device, for the development of the manufacturing and assembly process. As a result, a virtual mock-up was created with all the information about the design process, including all the parameters contemplated in the design process of the flow generator, simulation results, manufacturing drawings and assembly drawings. Resulting in a solid project that is ready to be put into test operation.
Optimización del proceso y tiempos en la elaboración de bancas en la empresa Siderúrgica Tungurahua
(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2021-08) Mejía Tustón, Bryan Marcelo; Arroba Arroba, César Hernán
For this project, a time and process optimization’s proposal was made for a company called Siderúrgica Tungurahua S.A in Ambato city, In order to achieve this, a new metodology’s approach has been made and for starting, it has been stablished a current diagnosis of the situation and after analyzing it, the improvement proposal has been presented. First, an evaluation of all the activities that are made in the current process was needed so all the actions generated in the production area and their duration were registered, this helped to start the time’s study in which the real duration is known and later, a time standar could be determinated and it will be stablished as a referential duration for each process, by doing this the employees’ permormance will be assessed. After this, the new strategies which main goals are to change and remove the needless functions are stablished and these strategies looks for coding the equipment,machinary and raw materials that the company has in order to make it easier when they have to make an inventory. Finally, an activies’ standardization was stablished in which all employees will know their functions from the beginning to end and in this way delays will be prevented. This will be reached by showing the employees schematics, diagrams and flowcharts, which will help to modify the previous time registered and with all of this, all the goals stablished in this investigation will be achieved.
