This document addresses and develops a framework tool to solve reliability issues in the calculation of processing times for components, using their dimensions. This framework was implemented in a real industrial setting, specifically in a multinational company that manufactures highly customizable electric motors according to customer requirements. After identifying the most critical components and their respective process diagrams, a prototype of the proposed framework was developed to calculate production time. Additionally, another prototype was developed to aid in visualizing the company's workload. As a result of this work, various improvements were observed in the company, including a 42% reduction in the time required to create workflows and an increase in the reliability and dependability of process times. The framework significantly enhanced operational efficiency, streamlined production processes, and provided a robust solution for managing the complexities of custom manufacturing, demonstrating its effectiveness in a real-world industrial environment. Furthermore, this approach has the potential to be adapted for use in other industries facing similar challenges.

摘要

This document addresses and develops a framework tool to solve reliability issues in the calculation of processing times for components, using their dimensions. This framework was implemented in a real industrial setting, specifically in a multinational company that manufactures highly customizable electric motors according to customer requirements. After identifying the most critical components and their respective process diagrams, a prototype of the proposed framework was developed to calculate production time. Additionally, another prototype was developed to aid in visualizing the company's workload. As a result of this work, various improvements were observed in the company, including a 42% reduction in the time required to create workflows and an increase in the reliability and dependability of process times. The framework significantly enhanced operational efficiency, streamlined production processes, and provided a robust solution for managing the complexities of custom manufacturing, demonstrating its effectiveness in a real-world industrial environment. Furthermore, this approach has the potential to be adapted for use in other industries facing similar challenges.
