The production of ice cream has become very popular in the last decade, showing a gradual increase in food consumption preference, generating millions of dollars in the international market, becoming a sector with great technological progress helping to improve the ice cream industry. Even so, there are companies that carry out the processes in an artisanal manner or with little technological modernization, as in the case of Bonanza. The objective of this article is to improve productivity through the use of method engineering tools and industrial automation in the production of the ice cream line of the Bonanza company. In a guided inspection, the operations diagram, process analysis and route diagram were determined. Finding dead times, bottlenecks, congestion and misuse of resources. With the help of Autodesk Inventor, Labview and TinkerCAD programs, the design and simulation of autom...

Abstract—In South America, there are few companies that are interested in the creation of prostheses and this, together with the little technological progress, makes patients with transfemoral amputation unable to perform their work. For this reason, the objective of this research is to design a prototype of a lower limb prosthesis for transfemoral amputation that helps the patient's mobility recovery, preventing the wear of the functional knee where an ergonomic design was considered for the patient's comfort. On the other hand, muscular sensors (EMG) were used to detect the intension of the movement, and triaxial accelerometers that capture the movement disturbances in the three axes X, Y, Z. The mechanical design was submitted to the Von Mises stress analysis simulation, these tests were performed in the SolidWorks software and the electronic circuit design was simulated in the Prot...
