Propuesta del diseño del sistema de producción, layout de la planta y logística de distribución de leche pasteurizada para la comunidad agrícola de San Agustín de Callo.

摘要

The thesis is carried out in the milk association of the Community of San Agustín de Callo, named as CEDECO, located in the province of Cotopaxi. CEDECO is currently engaged in the primary production and commercialization of milk to local pasteurization plants. However, it is seeking to become an integrated producer of pasteurized milk. Based on these premise, the project aims to implement technical tools to design the production process, pasteurization plant and distribution system for the Community of San Agustín de Callo. In order to achieve the objective, the project starts by giving a description of the social situation of Cotopaxi and a statistical analysis of the quantity of milk supplied by the community. Then, an analysis of the ideal capacity for the production system is presented taking in consideration the maximum quantity of milk supplied, potential demand and costs. On this basis, a production system and pasteurization layout is proposed. Finally, a market research is done in Latacunga and Lasso to generate a distribution route with the use of the travelling salesman problem.
