Compression Machines Relocation for Space Optimization
Zusammenfassung
Pharmaceutical industries develop,
produce and market drugs for use as medications.
All pharmaceutical manufacturers are directed to
produce in a high optimization environment to
increase productivity and ensure product of high
quality level. A design process was performed on
the compression manufacturing area of a
pharmaceutical industry in order to maximize the
space to achieve the current production demand,
improve the manufacturing process layout
increasing the efficiency and the safety on the
compression process. DMAIC (Define, Measure,
Analyze, Improve and Control) methodology was
used as a problem solving tool to identify how to
optimize the space. Some of the tools used on this
project include brainstorming and decision matrix
to determine the best layout alternative to improve
the work environment.
Key Terms - Compression Machines,
