Simulación de una Línea de Producción de Jabones en Barra para Disminuir Defectuoso en el Área de Troquelado

Abstract

In this case study, which was carried out in a soap manufacturing company, the manufacturing process is studied from the moment the ingredients are mixed with the previously saponified soap. The simulation process is carried out, which models the following processes: product mixing, grinding, extruding, cutting, die cutting, quality, packaging, and packing. This was done to identify bottlenecks and reduce defective products. It was identified that this stage of the process is the most critical because the final costs generated by the soap production and the amount of product to be reprocessed depend greatly on it, therefore, extreme care must be taken in this area.
