Diseño y simulación de un prototipo de una máquina dosificadora automática con capacidad de 10 kg para el empaquetado de chocolates en la empresa Familia Salesiana "El Salinerito"

Abstract

The present project consists of the design and simulation of an automatic dosing machine prototype with a capacity of 10 kg for the packaging of chocolates in Familia Salesiana Company “El Salinerito”. This chapter also describes the regulatory, reference and theoretical framework. The regulatory framework refers to the health and safety requirements that food processing machinery should comply with and the amount of product in pre-packages. The reference framework details the specific aspects of the Salesian Family Company and the theoretical framework develops the engineering concepts and principles for the development of the prototype. Chapter II and III, describes the design process, which details the parameters for the design, the analysis of the current dosage process and alternatives for the different constituent parts of the machine, the mechanical design factors, the validation of the operation and simulation. Chapter IV details the results obtained, presents the final design of the equipment and the analysis of the economic feasibility, according to which the project is feasible.
