Mapeamento de processos e análise de tempos e movimentos em uma indústria do setor metal mecânico

Abstract

This study aims to propose improvements in operating procedures through the development of process mapping and analysis of times and movements in an industry of mechanical metal sector. For this, a literature review was conducted, seeking concepts, works related to the theme and how other autors have solved similar problems. The methodological technical procedure used was action research. Data collection were developed relating to the identification of the chosen product, process mapping of the product and measured times of each step, identifying possible opportunities for improvement. Finally, were made six proposals for improvements related to the problems detected. This was done in partnership with the co-owner and the employees of the company, seeking solutions that contribute to improving the process and also decrease the product’s processing time.
