Resumen
Owens Illinois es una Compañía multinacional con amplia presencia global, enfocada
a la fabricación de envases de vidrio para diferentes industrias. Fundada en 1903 bajo el
nombre de Owens Bottle Machine Company, adoptó su denominación actual tras fusionarse
con Illinois Glass Company en 1929. En el Perú, la empresa comenzó sus actividades en
1993 mediante la adquisición de Vidrios Industriales S.A., y en 2008 fortaleció su capacidad
productiva con la inauguración de su planta en el distrito de Lurín. Su estrategia se
fundamenta en la creatividad, el desarrollo sostenible y la optimización constante de sus
procedimientos.
La presente consultoría tuvo como propósito principal diagnosticar la baja eficiencia
en la operación del horno C en la planta de Lurín, identificando sus causas fundamentales y
proponiendo alternativas viables de solución. Entre los factores críticos detectados se
encuentran: (a) falta de mantenimiento, (b) deficiente planificación de mantenimiento, (c)
maquinaria operando fuera de estándar, y (d) repuestos defectuosos. Estas causas evidencian
una problemática estructural en la gestión del mantenimiento.
En respuesta, se propone elaborar una revisión completa del proceso de
mantenimiento para identificar deficiencias y áreas donde se puede mejorar el sistema
existente. Como resultado del análisis causa-raíz, del estudio interno y de la revisión
bibliográfica especializada, se proponen dos soluciones principales: la implementación de un
Proceso de Planificación y Programación de Mantenimiento en el taller de máquinas, y la
aplicación de la metodología 5S para mejorar la organización, limpieza y eficiencia operativa
del área. Adicionalmente, se han definido indicadores clave de seguimiento que permitirán
evaluar la evolución del proceso, cuantificando el impacto de la transición desde un enfoque
reactivo hacia un modelo de mantenimiento proactivo.
Owens Illinois is a multinational company with a broad global presence, focused on the manufacture of glass containers for various industries. Founded in 1903 under the name Owens Bottle Machine Company, it adopted its current name after merging with Illinois Glass Company in 1929. In Peru, the company began operations in 1993 with the acquisition of Vidrios Industriales S.A., and in 2008, it strengthened its production capacity with the opening of its plant in the Lurín district, it increased its manufacturing ability by launching a new facility in the Lurín area. Its strategic approach is focused on innovation, sustainability, and the continuous improvement of its processes. This consultancy project aimed to diagnose the low production efficiency of Furnace C at the Lurín plant, identifying its root causes and proposing viable alternative solutions. The critical factors identified include: (a) lack of maintenance, (b) poor maintenance planning, (c) machinery operating outside standard parameters, and (d) defective spare parts. These issues reveal a structural problem in the maintenance management system. In response, a comprehensive audit of the maintenance process is proposed to identify gaps and improvement opportunities within the current system. Following an examination of underlying issues, a review of internal evaluations, and an analysis of pertinent literature, two primary recommendations are suggested: the implementation of a Maintenance Planning and Scheduling Process within the machine shop, and the implementation of the 5S approach to enhance tidiness, orderliness, and functional effectiveness in the environment. Performance metrics have been created to assess advancement and measure the effects of shifting from a maintenance approach that reacts to issues to one that anticipates them.
