Item Redistribución de planta en la empresa Jambi Kiwa(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Carrera de Ingeniería Industrial, 2024-08) González Flores, Yolanda Patricia; Rosero Mantilla, César AníbalThis study deals with the plant redistribution in Jambi Kiwa, a company dedicated to the production and commercialization of aromatic and medicinal herbal teas. Key aspects such as process design, micro-location of the facility and functional configuration were considered. In addition, the operations for obtaining the herbal teas, the distance traveled by the collaborators and the flow of activities in each production area were analyzed. The optimal redistribution combined batch and product distribution. The Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) method was used to establish relationships and priorities between areas, minimizing distances traveled. In addition, the Guerchet Method was used to determine the areas required at each work center. Corelap 01 software helped to identify the ideal layout of the areas, prioritizing the areas of closest proximity. Using these criteria, a layout was designed to maximize operational efficiency and improve overall productivity, and four proposals were developed. To select the best option, a load-distance analysis was performed, evaluating the efficiency of each layout in terms of proximity and material flow. FlexSim software was also used to simulate and validate the proposals, ensuring workflow optimization. Proposal D turned out to be the most efficient, achieving a 10.60% reduction in the total distance traveled, equivalent to 351.25 meters, which significantly improves the work flow. This proposal, with a cost of $ 3000.16 for the operational and productive optimization of the plant.
