Diseño de propuestas de mejora para el proceso de una línea de detergentes líquidos de una empresa manufacturera de la región

Abstract

In this study there examines the process of filling the line 50 of the company Reckitt Benckiser, with the intention of developing the company to increase the efficiency of production measured to the OEE indicator, provided that this one was presenting low results to 57% of the goal proposed by the company. As a first step, the current state of line 50 is taken and analyzed by means of the data obtained from the company and those collected during the production by the students, in order to identify and observe the standards of the process and according to these find variables that present problems in maintaining this standard. For this purpose, different tools were used, such as checklists, collection tables, Paretos, Scatterplots, correlation, among others that allowed a greater view of the analyzes extracted from the information. Based on the conclusions drawn from the analyzes, opportunities for improvement were identified in many of the processes in line 50 and proposals for improvement were made. Finally, 4 proposals for improvement were made, which consisted of design changes for one of the filling machines, as well as a change of speeds and the purchase of a new machine that serves as support for the entire production flow, so as to take advantage of the optimum possible time and output of corrugated which finally is what reflects the increase of the OEE.
