Simulação da dinâmica operacional do processo industrial de pendura de frangos

Abstract

This work was aimed to analyze, through a computational model, the operational dynamics of the industrial process of hangs of the chickens. The model of dynamic, discrete and stochastic type was implemented in the simulation software Arena®. As comparison parameter between the data obtained from the system and generated by model, was chosen the NFP variable (Number of Chickens Hanging). At model validation, according to Analysis of Variance, at the significance level of 1%, it was not detected statistical differences between real system and generated simulation model data. According to this and other analyses, lead to the conclusion that model and system outcomes were in good agreement. It was obtained, through simulation results of a work shift, a large number of chickens hanging by employee. It was observed what the high burden of repetitive movements, depending of number of chickens hanging, may have deleterious effects on health of workers.
