    Desarrollo de una propuesta de automatización en la empresa Dotaciones Zolu para la reduccion de cuellos de botella
    Rodriguez-Aguillón, Joan Sebastian; Pulido-Caceres, Julian Guillermo; Suarez, Ruth Milena
    This technical work contributes to the business field with the help of an automation proposal for the company Dotaciones Zolu, dedicated to the manufacture of work clothing. For its development, the current situation of the company, its needs and the benefits that could be obtained through the proposal were taken into account. An analysis of the company was carried out, where a direct observation of the production processes was made. From this, opportunities for improvement that can be achieved through automation were identified. In this context, important areas where it is possible to optimize are highlighted. The carton labeling process, currently done manually, is susceptible to human error, consumes valuable time, and can lead to inconsistencies in product identification. The implementation of an automated system would allow for fast, accurate and standardized identification of each box, optimizing inventory management and reducing the possibility of errors in order preparation and shipments. This would improve operational efficiency and also strengthen the company's professional image. On the other hand, manually transporting materials from the production line to storage areas leads to downtime for stockists, increases physical fatigue, and causes bottlenecks. The introduction of automated conveyor solutions, such as conveyor belts, would significantly optimize this flow and free up stockists for more strategic tasks. Therefore, the company would improve productivity and profitability.
