SISTEMAS DE PRODUÇÃO: otimização na produção de tacho em aço inoxidável aquecido a vapor utilizado na fabricação de doce de leite

Abstract

This work analyzed alternatives of improvements in the manufacture of an automated machine for the manufacture of milk sweet. Such an approach is necessary because of the high cost of manufacturing such equipment. The objective of this study is mainly the optimization of the productive process through the application of techniques related to production systems, organization and planning of the productive sector, quality improvement, standardization of the productive method and the components that compose the equipment besides the motivation of the team involved in the process, thus facilitating the adaptation of the current productive method, thus generating more competitiveness to the company through self-knowledge and knowledge of the environment where the company is allocated, thus optimizing the manufacture of equipment and subsequent maintenance. This purpose will be achieved through the case study of the current productive method of the equipment and its optimization through techniques proposed by several authors, however the intention of the research is initially didactic. Through this research, a parallel between the current way of manufacturing the equipment and the new production model, focused on the optimization of the process through the standardization of the production method and components, can be traced, giving the equipment greater quality, reliability and and the workers involved in the process, the research will also seek to reduce the cost of manufacturing the equipment through a concise and well defined sequence, reducing its final price, and facilitating future maintenance, which can be carried out in a simplified and at a lower cost. Therefore, the optimization in the production of this equipment will bring greater competitiveness of the company in the market, expanding its business opportunities.
