Abstract

The metal-mechanic sector plays an important role for the Peruvian economy, representing approximately 1% of total GDP and 6% of manufacturing GDP. It is particularly relevant for its strategic role in providing essential components and services for sectors such as mining, construction, and agribusiness. The problem that motivates this study focuses on the need to reduce the waste of resources in metal-working companies where operational performance is affected, and in this sense, the research was carried out in a factory producing fans with the objective of developing an operations management model to improve compliance with the production plan. An empirical study was conducted using Lean Manufacturing techniques—specifically 5S, Standardized Work, and Single-Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED)—to develop a model that was functionally validated through a pilot test and process simulation. The results showed that production plan compliance reached 60.7%, non-productive time was reduced by 92.8%, cycle time decreased by 3.46%, and setup time was reduced by 25.2%. The contribution of this research demonstrates that integrating the applied engineering techniques results in a robust and effective combination for improving industrial processes.
