Resumen
Introducción. Este estudio presenta un análisis comparativo entre métodos tradicionales y simulación por computadora para la optimización de un proceso de manufactura. Métodos. Se utilizó FlexSim como herramienta de simulación para modelar una línea de ensamblaje de lámparas de escritorio, comparando los resultados obtenidos con cálculos analíticos tradicionales. Resultados. Los resultados demuestran que la simulación permite identificar cuellos de botella con mayor precisión y evaluar múltiples escenarios de mejora de manera eficiente. El modelo simulado mostró una reducción del 23.5% en el tiempo de ciclo y un incremento del 18.7% en la productividad total del sistema. Conclusión. Los hallazgos sugieren que la simulación con FlexSim ofrece ventajas significativas sobre los métodos tradicionales en términos de precisión, flexibilidad y capacidad de análisis de escenarios complejos.
