Evaluación del rendimiento y la productividad en la industria manufacturera de palmito

Abstract

The study of time and movements analyzed in this graduation work involves the production line of palmetto processing industry INCOPALMITO. The actual situation background was analyzed to evaluate the yield and productivity which is improving through the implantation of improvements in the productive process, avoiding unnecessary tasks, dead and unproductive times delays and inefficiency.at the moment the enterprise does not have the historical data for the operations carried out in the productive process; the direct observation of each was performed; an according to the process and work condition. Bi-manual diagrams are designed to reach all the movements damaging the lane efficiency; these movements are eliminated and proposals are made for their improvement. Interesting study points are analyzed in three process lines resulting in the fact that the operators works at their convenience at a very low rhythm; this is why in the In the production there were a lot of overtime hours with 50% efficiency level; with the yield evaluation, the proposal of dividing all the work personnel into two groups is made to establish two shifts to rise 80% the efficiency line, generating a cost saving though direct labor upon establishing standard times, elimination completely overtime hours.
