Abstract

In the dynamic and competitive sector of carbonated beverages, manufacturers in Peru face significant challenges

related to machine maintenance, process standardization, and defect management. These issues not only impair

production efficiency but also impact public health and consumer satisfaction. This study introduces an integrated

approach utilizing Lean Manufacturing methodologies—specifically 5S, Standardized Work, and Total Productive

Maintenance (TPM)—to address these challenges. The proposed model systematically enhances the production

processes by reducing waste, improving machine reliability, and standardizing operations to ensure consistent product

quality. The implementation of this model in a Peruvian beverage manufacturing facility led to notable improvements:

a reduction in the defect rate by 32%, an increase in Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) from 61% to 81%, a

decrease in downtime by 48%, and a significant reduction in waste. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of

Lean Manufacturing tools in transforming production environments by enhancing operational efficiency and reducing

losses, thereby fostering a sustainable and consumer-oriented production landscape.
