Planejamento da capacidade: um estudo de caso na etapa de cortes de um frigorífico de frangos

The present work has the objective of planning the capacity of the Double Wing Cutter Machine, in the Cutting Stage, of a Fridge Industry, having as support the study of times. First, the standard time to put a wing on the Machine was defined and compared to the Company's production plan. Then, the calculations of the capacity (available, effective and fulfilled), workforce and the Machine were performed. Finally, all these variables were related, to then define the machine's ideal operating standard, which included the number of employees and frequency of operation of the Machine, in order to meet the productive demands. With the accomplishment of the planning of the capacity of the Machine, it was verified its has sufficient capacity to attend to the production plan of the Company and the productive demands. In order to guarantee this, it is necessary to comply with the Machine's operating standard, in which it was possible to define the quantities of collaborators needed to supply the Machine, operating at a defined frequency according to the speed of the lines preceding it.
