Rediseño de la planta de producción de una empresa fabricadora de vasos, envases y empaques de papel

Abstract

CONDITION FOR PUBLICATION OF PROJECT. The goal of this project is to analyze and optimize the efficiency of a manufacturing plant through accurate simulations, using real data to validate different distribution and layout scenarios. The hypothesis is that reorganizing resources and processes leads to significant increases in productivity. The rationale lies in the need to reduce cycle times and improve resource utilization, which provides competitive advantages for the company. For the development, data was collected through SAP system reports and measurements at the plant, using sampling techniques and statistical analysis, as well as FlexSim simulation software to replicate the current process and improved models. The main results indicated that the simulation accurately reflected cycle times and station speeds, revealing potential improvements in layout and staff distribution. It is concluded that the simulations carried out allow for the anticipation of increases in production efficiency, confirming optimization proposals that, at present, contribute to more efficient and competitive management.
