Proposta de redução de desperdício de material e produto em um processo de fabricação de iogurte

Abstract

The present work aimed to carry out a PDCA, together with some quality tools (Pareto diagram, Ishikawa diagram and SIPOC) used to analyze all losses related to plastic sheet and product of a yogurt filling process. After collect all critical points, it was possible to focus on the main ones and in this way highlight where really was impacting the filling line. Finally, actions were proposed on top of these main critical points and monitored the performance of the postaction line completed. With these actions, it was possible to raise comparative data and view the decrease in machine downtime due to mechanical maintenance failures, which was 54 hours approximately, reducing to 20 hours, in a period of next comparison. In terms of productrelated losses, we observe that in a comparative period there was a considerable reduction in 30% approximately.
