Abstract

The present study is focused on the analysis of the productive layout of a company that operates in the furniture industry, focusing on the distribution of machinery that make up the company's manufacturing space. The need for modification was observed based on the survey of customer complaints about products purchased from the company. Thus, it was found that the current layout did not meet the company's production demand. In this way, Arena software was used to model a new production layout, linked to the use of quality tools and concepts, with the objective of establishing an efficient production layout, which would successfully meet the demands and needs of customers. . After the implemented optimizations, the company was able to identify bottlenecks present in its previous layout that were impacting the obtaining of the final product, so that the necessary corrections were applied, thus resulting in the minimization of the productive lead time, idle time between the machines. and reduction of movements, thus generating assertive production, productive economy, producing with quality and eliminating customer complaints.
