The case study is a producer and marketer of plastic containers, through a diagnosis of production times, the low availability of injection machines was identified as the main problem, obtaining a value of 80.19%. It is represented as a relevant problem, as the world class standard is 90%. Low availability is mainly due to machine stoppages, which represent 9.87% of lost costs for the company. To improve machine availability, an improvement model was proposed which mainly integrates the application of Lean Manufacturing tools with Kaizen, which refers to the continuous improvement of processes. The model is also integrated with Ergonomics concepts, which will allow the improvement of working conditions for operators. So, if improvements are achieved with respect to human capital, this will allow the improvement of machine availability. Finally, after the implementation of the pilot model in the company, it was possible to increase the availability of the machine by 6.8%, the reduction of lost costs by 3.9% and an increase in the company's profit by 13.12%.
