Diseño y construcción de una extrusora y una empaquetadora de tabacos de dulce

Abstract

This project presents the design and construction of two independent machines, a candy tobacco extruder and a functional prototype of a packer for extruded tobacco. Both machines will be financed by “Confitería Mr. T” company, whose future intentions are to replace their manual processes. The project begins with a description of the mass used to produce the candy. We applied the quality function deployment in order to prioritize the customer’s requirements and needs. These two last parameters were presented in a chart and used to group the different alternatives in modules to choose better options. Then we proceed to carry out the detailed design of the machines. Building drawings for the machine and the choice of standard elements based on a cost analysis. Once the building plans were finished, the manufacture started up, shop of these standard elements. At the end, when the extruder was finished, the results of the extruder and the packer machine can be evidenced as alternatives for the mechanization of the manufacture of candy tobacco from the “Confitería Mr. T”.
