Ltda.”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2024-02) Paredes Andrade, Alex Fernando; Morales Perrazo, Luis AlbertoThe low level of quality control in company processes presents a challenging problem when critical aspects of these processes are neglected. In this context, this investigation focuses on analyzing the quality of products manufactured by the company TEXCODI CÍA. LTDA. The research was based on the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Implement, Control) methodology, adopting a quantitative approach. Samples were collected during a month in the labs, using systematic random sampling of 20 subgroups with the highest-rented product of the company in question. The investigation determined that the cutting and assembly stages were key points for quality control during the process. It was established that these stages presented critical problems in quality control, corresponding to the reception of inadequate raw materials and the lack of proper equipment maintenance. The study results showed that the critical variables for quality control were: inadequate dimensions (with a 70.5% error rate), and loose threads (with a 53.8% error rate). The quality control metric in the cutting and assembly stages yielded 1.57 and 2.61 sigmas, respectively, which is well below the industry standard of 3 to 4 sigmas. In conclusion, the company lacks a quality control process capable of achieving sigma levels on par with the textile industry. This negatively impacts the quality of their products and results in a loss of credibility, clientele, and competitiveness in the market.Item Análisis de factibilidad para la exportación de productos metalúrgicos en la empresa Instruequipos Cia.

Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2023-09) Mendes Ortiz, Henry Ricardo; Mariño Rivera, Christian JoséThis research project is focused on analysing the ergonomic risk factors in the poultry sheds of the company "Avícola Pérez", in order to determine the main causes that generate musculoskeletal disorders and ailments, analysing the working conditions to identify the tasks that affect the physical deterioration of the workers. Implementing various research and evaluation methodologies, such as; the Kuorinka Nordic questionnaire that allowed us to determine the most affected body areas (neck, dorsal and lumbar area). The ISO TR 12295:2014 technical standard allowed us to determine that manual lifting of loads, repetitive movements and pushing or pulling loads are the ergonomic risk factors with the highest prevalence in the tasks performed by the workplace. The assessment of the ergonomic risk due to repetitive movements was carried out using the OCRA Check List method, showing an "Uncertain and Unacceptable" risk level in the poultry shed worker position. For the risk due to manual lifting of loads, the INSHT Technical Guide was used, showing a "Not tolerable" risk level in relation to the weight handled in a single lift and the total weight transported daily (PTTD) presented a "Tolerable" risk level. Finally, the risk from load pushing was assessed using ISO 11228-2:2019 in conjunction with the Snook and Ciriello Tables showing an "Unacceptable" risk level. Based on these results, a proposal for improvement is put forward that focuses on preventing, correcting and controlling the working conditions to which workers are exposed, through the use of intervention strategies and the development of instructions in order to safeguard the integrity and health of employees.Item Análisis estadístico de la calidad en los procesos de inyección de plástico de la empresa Ecuatoriana de Matricería Ecuamatriz Cía. Ltda.(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2024-08) Pazmiño Lizano, Miguel Ricardo; Morales Perrazo, Luis AlbertoThe suboptimal quality control in the plastic injection process engenders a 3% loss due to defects such as incomplete, marbled, and deformed parts at ECUAMATRIZ Cía. Ltda. This directly translates into diminished product reliability and potentially dissatisfied clientele. To address this impact, a statistical analysis of quality in this process was developed. A quantitative and descriptive approach based on Six Sigma and DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) was employed. For definition, data was collected through records and Pareto diagrams. For measurement, 100% sampling, R&R studies, and control charts were utilized. The analysis identified root causes using Ishikawa diagrams and the 5 Whys method. For improvement and control, the FMEA matrix was implemented, determining the most significant root cause and developing proposals with experienced personnel. The analysis of P control charts for attributes revealed unstable processes for marbling (5.5%), incomplete parts (0%), and deformation (2.7%), with sigma levels of 1.99, 2.06, and 2.64 respectively, evidencing deficient statistical control and high variability. The root causes were identified as lack of preventive maintenance, absence of records and control of critical parameters (temperature, pressure, injection speed, among others), lack of cleaning procedures, and insufficient personnel training. It was concluded that the plastic injection process exhibits a low level of quality and control, operating below globally required standards, representing an annual loss of 1.98% in terms of defects, reprocessing, and waste.Item Aplicación de herramientas lean manufacturing en el Taller de Innovación y Desarrollo Tecnológico FISEI(Universidad Técnica de Ambato.

This will contribute to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the institution in achieving its objectives.Item Cálculo del costo beneficio de un sistema de prevención de riesgos ergonómicos en estibadores de la empresa pública - empresa municipal mercado Mayorista Ambato(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Industrial, 2023-03) Saransig Tontaquimba, Christian Javier; Larrea Bustos, Anita LuciaWorkers in the Ambato wholesale market are exposed to different types of risks in the work performed in the development of their activities, especially those that require manual handling of loads. The most common risks and of particular interest are ergonomic, this is due to lifting, transporting, pushing and pulling loads manually, repetitive movements, application of force, postures and forced movements; all these factors cause different disorders in the health of workers. Therefore, the focus of the research study is the calculation of the cost-benefit of a system of ergonomic risk prevention in stevedores of the Public Company - Municipal Company Wholesale Market Ambato, to avoid muscular injuries in the future. Using the technique of direct observation and the new Ergonomics document ISO TR 12295:2014, ergonomic risks were identified in the workstations of warehouse D (tender grains). Subsequently, three stevedores, one for each task, were evaluated using the RULA method, which showed that 100% of the workers urgently needed a change in their tasks. The cost of a prevention proposal was calculated using diffusion instruments and compared with the cost of medical treatment for a longshoreman with musculoskeletal disorders. As a proposed solution, a matrix was developed with ergonomic recommendations based on international standards that seek the comfort of workers in the manual handling of loads. In addition, didactic tools were developed: informative posters, triptych and safe procedure sheets to inform dockworkers about the prevention of musculoskeletal injuries and disordersItem La calidad fitosanitaria en las flores de exportación de la empresa Sisa Green Flowers(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2024-08) Changoluisa Calapaqui, Francis Alfonso; Morales Perrazo, Luis AlbertoPhytosanitary quality control in export products is fundamental to ensure customer satisfaction and product quality, therefore, this research focused on evaluating the performance of quality control during lot inspection at SISA GREEN FLOWERS. The research applied the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) methodology with a quantitative approach to address the quality problem. The problem was defined using Pareto diagrams, brainstorming and flow charts. Measurement developed systematic sampling to generate 135 subgroups to develop control charts of critical variables. The analysis used Ishikawa diagrams and 5W technique. Finally, the proposed improvement seeks to solve the root cause of defective product acceptance. Quality defects were analyzed using critical quality variables (CTQ's). Consequently, the results of the study show that the defect "presence of mites" presents problems with the variable "compliance with phytosanitary protocols for mites" because it showed a level of 0.6291 sigma. The defect "affections by thrips" was evaluated integrally, obtaining 0.7067 sigma. As for defects related to "stem deterioration", the variable "stem appearance" was identified as having a level of 0.7204 sigma. All variables generate out-of-specification products. Finally, the quality level turns out to be very low, affecting the company's reputation and generating possible significant financial losses, estimated at around $4137,13 for each shipment of products to customers abroad.Item Condiciones de trabajo en ambientes térmicos fríos en la empresa “Proalimec Cia. Ltda.”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2024-02) Larrea Galeano, Christian Hernán; Morales Perrazo, Luis AlbertoPeople who work in refrigeration rooms are at risk of contracting thermal stress due to cold, causing negative health effects such as trench foot, Raynaud's phenomenon, hypothermia, frostbite, and local damage to the body. Under this problematic context, the research objective was to evaluate thermal stress due to cold in production personnel who work in cold rooms of the company “PROALIMEC CIA. LTDA.” The evaluation of thermal stress due to cold was based on the methodology of the UNE - EN ISO 11079 standard. An anemometer (AR856) and a thermal stress meter (SPERT SCIENTIFIC) were used to determine thermohydrometric variables as stipulated in the UNE - EN ISO 7726 standard; in addition, the estimation of the metabolic consumption of the workers was determined using the UNE - EN ISO 8996 standard; finally, the calculation of the IREQ index was established through the required insulation of clothing and the maximum time of exposure to cold in an 8-hour workday. The study used a quantitative approach through descriptive research. It was determined that the average working ambient temperature in the refrigeration rooms 1-2 and 3 are -1,1 °C and -1,8 °C, the average globe temperature is -2,9 °C and -3,9 °C, the average relative humidity is 42,2% and 48,4%, the wind speed is 0 m/s, and the average metabolic rate of the operating personnel is 165,39 W/m2. It is concluded that based on the results obtained from the IREQ index, workers have no risk of contracting cold stress and have thermally sufficient clothing to avoid frostbite.Item Confort térmico en el ambiente laboral del edificio centro del GAD Municipalidad de Ambato(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2022-09) Jiménez Gamboa, David Alberto; Urrutia Urrutia, FernandoThe present investigative study is the evaluation of the thermal comfort in the areas with more risks of the GADMA Center Building. To analyze the current working conditions, observation and identification matrices and a survey with questions based on ISO 10551 AENOR 2002 are used, with which it is possible to identify which are the areas with the highest risk. The Fanger method (NTP 074) is used, it allows to evaluate the temperature, taking into account the temperature levels, work clothes and the metabolic rate, all of this to calculate the estimated average voting index (PMV) and the percentage of people who are dissatisfied (PPD), these data are compared with values recommended by executive decree 2393 and the UNEEN ISO 7730/2006 standard. The measurements are made using the Delta Ohm HD 32.3 equipment, with the Delta Log 10 software the calculations are developed following the measurement strategies proposed in the NTP 387, since an improvement proposal is made that can be implemented in real life. The PMV index indicates the thermal perception of the workers with a scale of 7 levels (+3 and -3), the work areas with the highest risk are not within the established range, it presents 7 jobs that represent 33% of The 21 jobs analyzed present a neutral thermal sensation, which indicates that the thermal conditions are acceptable (-1≤PMV≤0), 12 jobs, corresponding to 57%, present a slightly cold sensation (-2≤PMV≤-1). ) and 10% corresponding to 2 positions have a warm sensation (3≥PMV≥2), concluding that there is THERMAL DISCOMFORT due to heat and cold.Item Control de calidad en los procesos de confección de ropa interior de la corporación Impactex Cía. Ltda.(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2024-02) Manobanda Chuquicondor, Ángel Darío; Morales Perrazo, Luis AlbertoEl bajo control de calidad en la confección de ropa interior genera grandes pérdidas económicas para las empresas de esta rama productiva, por lo cual, la investigación se centró en evaluar el desempeño de control de calidad en los procesos de confección de ropa interior de la Corporación Impactex Cía. Ltda. El estudio utilizó una investigación descriptiva y un enfoque cuantitativo basado en la metodología Six Sigma y su herramienta DMAIC (Definir, Medir, Analizar, Mejorar y Controlar). En la fase de definir, se empleó técnicas como lluvia de ideas, 5W-2H y diagrama de Pareto. La etapa de medir implementó un muestreo sistemático del 100% de los productos en un periodo de 15 días. El análisis se realizó mediante el diagrama de Ishikawa, los 5 por qué y el AMEF. Y finalmente, en la fase de mejora se utilizó la herramienta 5W-1H para la propuesta de control. Los resultados arrojan que los defectos de "fallas de costura" y "manchas de aceite" son los principales responsables de ocasionar variabilidad en la producción (49,7% y 25,2%, respectivamente). Esto se atribuyó a la falta de capacitación en técnicas de costura, rotación frecuente del personal, carencia de mantenimiento preventivo en las máquinas de coser y ausencia de protocolos de limpieza. Además, el análisis Six Sigma reveló que el proceso está fuera de control estadístico, con 36151 PPM fuera de especificaciones y un nivel sigma de 1,8 para fallas de costura, y 5837 PPM fuera de especificaciones con un nivel sigma de 2,52 para manchas de aceite. Se concluye que el proceso de confección de ropa interior presenta un bajo control estadístico de calidad en su confección, debido a que el nivel sigma actual de la empresa está por debajo de lo recomendado para la industria textil que deberían estar de 3 a 4 sigmas.
