Time Improvement in the Production of Broiler Ovens for Grilled Chicken

Abstract

According to the INEI in May 2023, the consumer price index in Metropolitan Lima increased by 2.67%, which increased the price of grilled chickens, with a demand of 150 million chickens per year, which requires more quality ovens to be manufactured in a short period of time. This work develops the improvement of production times in the production of ovens for grilled chicken. In order to improve production times, the direct observation method had to be used to find out the processes in the production stage and the time taken for each process, after which the possible causes that generate delays in the manufacturing stage were evaluated, detecting in the painting stage and a route diagram that was not productive, then it was evaluated by means of the analysis of DAP, DOP that allowed to examine the processes in detail and propose a new workflow with a curing lamp and a new route diagram, in addition to them improvements were considered in the production of oven to detect by sensors the state of the cooking of chickens and the option of cuts of chickens in 1/8, 1/4, ½, whole chicken and through simulation in FACTORY I / O was placed a robotic arm to add potatoes or salad. Finally, with proposal 2, production was increased by 100% and production times were reduced by 45.18% considering a yield of 80% in the drying stage by means of the curing lamp.
