Item type:Ítem, Riesgos mecánicos en la empresa Milplast(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial., 2026-07-01) ;Muñoz Jordán, Miguel Ángel ;López Arboleda, Jessica PaolaUniversidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial.The objective of this degree project was to evaluate the mechanical risks present in the production area of MILPLAST company using the William T. Fine method, in order to identify, assess, and prioritize hazardous conditions associated with the development of its productive activities. For this purpose, the shredding, injection, and finishing areas were initially analyzed, as well as the tasks performed by workers, considering their interaction with machinery, moving parts, blades, conveyor belts, molds, and tools. The research applied the IPER methodology for hazard identification and initial assessment of mechanical risks. Subsequently, the William T. Fine method was used, considering the factors of consequence, exposure, and probability, in order to determine the degree of hazard for each identified risk. The results showed that the activities with the highest exposure are mainly related to entrapment, cuts, impacts, particle projection, and contact with moving machine components. Based on the assessment carried out, technical, administrative, and control measures were proposed to reduce risk levels, such as the implementation of guards, safety signage, proper use of personal protective equipment, periodic inspections, and the application of safe work procedures. In conclusion, the application of the William T. Fine method made it possible to establish a technical basis for the preventive management of mechanical risks at MILPLAST, contributing to the strengthening of industrial safety and the protection of workers’ physical integrity.Item type:Ítem, Gestión de riesgos mecánicos en la empresa Millpolímeros para la prevención de accidentes en el trabajo.(Gestión de riesgos mecánicos en la empresa Millpolímeros para la prevención de accidentes en el trabajo., 2026-01) ;Medina Sánchez, Edgar Vinicio ;Mariño Rivera, Christian JoseUniversidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial.This study was developed to provide Millpolimeros with a technical proposal aimed at strengthening the management of mechanical risks present in its production processes. The research arose from the need to prevent workplace accidents associated with the use of machinery and equipment, as well as to improve safety conditions for operational personnel. To this end, a detailed analysis of the work environment was carried out, combining qualitative and quantitative methods that allowed for understanding both current practices and workers' perceptions of existing hazards. In the analysis of production tasks, various activities related to mechanical equipment and operations were reviewed, identifying multiple hazards that directly affect worker safety. Among the most relevant findings, it was determined that several of these activities present risk levels that require immediate intervention, especially those related to moving parts, power transmission, and materials handling. The assessment carried out using the William T. Fine method showed that certain risks exceed acceptable limits, while others are only tolerable under strict controls. Finally, the need to implement concrete actions to reduce mechanical risks and address safety deficiencies identified throughout the study is highlighted.Item type:Ítem, Gestión de riesgos físicos y mecánicos en la Curtiduría Hidalgo de la ciudad de Ambato(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2025-02) ;Toalombo Eugenio Hernán IsmaelJordán Hidalgo Edisson PatricioSafety laws and regulations are applied in all business environments with the main objective of protecting people who are the most valuable resource of the company and carry out work activities under risky conditions. The Hidalgo Tannery, a company dedicated to the production of leather, has few plans, requirements and technical documents that address the risk factors necessary to prevent or reduce accidents and physical damage in the workplace. The poor training of workers in safety measures, their overconfidence when carrying out their tasks and lack of knowledge about the correct use of personal protective equipment are some of the causes that have generated the presence of risks in the company. Through the research carried out, it was proposed as a solution to the problem to propose an industrial safety technical management plan based on the independent study and analysis of the work areas and considering the regulations currently established within the national statutes and regulations. The most critical risks were identified in the production area, with mechanical risks being the most serious, and it was detected that noise levels exceed the permitted limit (85dBA) in workplaces such as hairdressing, fleshing, dividing, tanning, softened, pigmented and ironed. Furthermore, factors such as the lack of signage, disorder, the absence of training and the lack of prevention plans aggravate the levels of occupational risk in the company.Item type:Ítem, Riesgos mecánicos en el departamento de obras públicas del GAD Latacunga(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2024-02) ;Moreira Almache, Edy VladimirJordán Hidalgo, Edisson PatricioThe safety of workers is a matter of utmost relevance today, both for private and public companies. For this reason, the current research project aims to identify and assess the risks most prevalent in the activities carried out by workers in the metal-mechanical industrial workshop of the GAD Latacunga. The risk assessment focused specifically on mechanical risks. The absence of occupational risk management means that workshop workers are exposed to various risks that threaten their safety, health, and physical integrity. In order to detect risk factors in the activities conducted in the industrial workshop, various tools were utilized, including interviews, checklists, description sheets, and a triple-criteria matrix. These tools allowed for detailing the risks to which workers are exposed. By applying the PGV methodology (Probability, Severity, Vulnerability), it was possible to identify and evaluate risk factors, resulting in a total of 262 identified elements. Out of these, 35 correspond to physical factors, 143 to mechanical factors, 28 to chemical factors, 29 to biological factors, 12 to ergonomic factors, 15 to psychosocial factors, and no major explosion risks were identified. Once the risks with the highest prevalence in the workshop were identified, their assessment was carried out using the technical standard NTP 330. This standard allowed for evaluating each of the mechanical risks present in the activity, assigning them a level of action classified as acceptable, improvable, correctable, or critical situation. Finally, a prevention plan for mechanical risks was developed, consisting of three phases: an initial phase establishing policies and objectives, an operational phase covering identification, evaluation, and prevention, and lastly, a supervision phase involving monitoring and control. The goal of this plan is to minimize and prevent risks in the work areasItem type:Ítem, Riesgos mecánicos en el área de producción en la empresa Heron(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2023-09) ;Núñez Escobar, Dayanna AbigailUrrutia Urrutia, FernandoThis research study is carried out in the productive area of HERON, a manufacturing company located in the Lasso neighborhood, Tanicuchi parish, Latacunga canton of the Cotopaxi province, specialized in the design and construction of stainless equipment and machinery for the food industry. The INSHT risk assessment matrix was achieved to identify the hazards and estimate the risks in the different jobs of the company, which resulted in identifying a total of 101 risks in the 12 existing jobs to mechanical risks, 12% to environmental risks, 10% to psychosocial risks, 9% to ergonomic risks, 5% to physical risks and 3% to chemical risks. Twenty trivial risks were identified, 48 tolerable, 23 moderate, 8 important and 2 intolerable. The evaluation of mechanical risks was carried out using the NTP 330 methodology, which allowed the identification of 25 mechanical risks, of which 18 are better, 5 important and 2 intolerable critical that require immediate correction, while 80% of the risks are at level II, which requires correcting and adopting control measures. Finally, as a preventive measure for risk control, a risk management plan is proposed that includes company information, risk assessment methods and a series of programs and procedures suggested for the proper development of activities in the production área.Item type:Ítem, Riesgos mecánicos en el taller de mantenimiento de la empresa de trasporte pesado José Ocaña Mayorga S.A.(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2022-09) ;Paredes Sánchez, Cristhian AlexTigre Ortega, Franklin GeovannyIn the work performed in maintenance workshops, especially in those where there is the existence of heavy load vehicles, there are different types of risks to which workers are subjected. One of the risks that is prevalent and of particular interest are the mechanical hazards, this is due to the use of tools and tasks in confined situations in the vehicles. Thus, this research project focuses on the analysis of the mechanical risks present in the maintenance workshop of the heavy transport company "José Ocaña Mayorga S.A.". Through an observation-based methodology and the use of arrays to record the information, the activities of all the workstations present in the workshop were identified. Likewise, an initial analysis was carried out by means of checklists to identify the mechanical risk factors due to the safety conditions of the facility. Subsequently, using the Colombian Technical Guide 45 (GTC-45), the mechanical risk factors derived from the activities of the maintenance shop workers were identified and evaluated, which resulted in a total of 424 mechanical risks associated with the workers' activities, with the following factors being found as intolerable: falls to different levels and important: handling of equipment or tools, entrapment by or between objects, entanglement or collision by vehicles, and falling objects due to collapse. Consequently, an action guide was developed to control the most critical risk factors, based on the Technical Prevention Standards of the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, which will enable workers to perform maintenance activities in safer conditions.
