The present work arises from the need of a continental packaging solutions provider to improve productivity levels in its production lines, specifically in the manufacturing of bags for the cement industry, a sector directly linked to construction that has been projected to grow steadily in recent years. First, a current analysis is carried out, identifying that productivity is below what was planned and the company's expected target, due to a high number of non-conforming products and reprocesses generated in the printing area, mainly caused by poor format changes and paper roll changes. Secondly, a solution is designed based on a model applying Lean Manufacturing methodology tools, starting with SMED to reduce setup times, then Work Standardization for roll changes, and closing with 5S to decrease reprocesses generated in the study area. Finally, with the application of the aforementioned tools and a simulation of the proposed system, an increase in productivity of 43.49% is evidenced, reaching the target levels. Additionally, a positive NPV, an IRR higher than the COC, and a benefit-cost ratio of 1.73 in relation to the investment are achieved. Therefore, the results obtained in both the technical and economic aspects make the proposal viable and useful as a reference for improving productivity in bag production lines within the paper industry.
