Abstract

This course completion work (TCC) addresses the optimization of production in a company dedicated to the assembly of fans, aiming at reducing costs by balancing the activities in each workstation. The research highlights the importance of operational efficiency in the industry, especially in a scenario where competitiveness requires constant process improvements. The study begins with a literature review on strategies to reduce labor and efficiency in industrial production. Then, the specific context of the company analyzed is presented, highlighting the challenges faced in relation to production costs and the need to improve efficiency without compromising product quality. The applied methodology involves the detailed analysis of the activities performed in each stage of the assembly of fans, identifying possible bottlenecks and inefficiencies. Based on this analysis, recommendations are proposed for balancing activities, seeking a more equitable distribution of workload among employees. The results obtained after the implementation of the changes were analyzed from the metrics of production time, operational costs and employee satisfaction. It is concluded that the effective balancing of activities can result in a significant reduction in the need for labor, contributing to the competitiveness of the company in the market. The study offers practical understandings for companies in the sector that seek to improve their operational efficiency, highlighting the importance of continuous monitoring and adaptation to changes in the production environment
