Aplicação de métodos de análise e solução de problemas (MASP) para melhoria e redução de desperdícios em uma indústria de embalagens flexíveis

Abstract

The work it is a project of improvement carried out in an industry of plastic flexible packaging in the state of São Paulo. The MASP methodology ( Problem Solving Method and Analysis) was applied in the workflow, together with other continuous improvement tools, to solve problems related to waste of materials and also unnecessary hours of operation work. The project carried out by the Engineering team was developed through the application of MASP, focused on the introduction of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology on the shop floor. With the use of the applied quality tools, MASP and PDCA, the root causes of the problems were identified and solved, such as significant reduction of the plastic film reels leg, with predictions of savings of 3 million reais in 1 year of project, improving the organisation of the shop floor and inventory, reducing working hours, increasing data reliability by 95% and creating a 24-hour integrated identification system for all employees, enabling future plans for identification and control of raw material pallets.
