Resumen
Tetra Pak is a Swedish multinational that provides processing and packaging solutions for the food and beverage industries, and has a headquarters in Colombia, where it serves and supports more than 50 different companies. It was identified the need to carry out an analysis of the processing equipment commercialized by Tetra Pak from the years 2000 to 2011 that are still in operation, due to the fact that, due to the age of these machines, some of the installed control systems have been migrating to new technologies and are on the way to obsolescence, and this affects the production of customers due to the outdated automation modules.
The objective of this work was to formulate a technical proposal to update control panels for process machines of Tetra Pak Colombia customers. To this end, a survey of the installed base of food processing equipment was made, an identification of the panels found on the machines under study was made, and a diagnosis of the control components that are obsolete was made. and with these results, the formulation of the technical proposal to update the control panels for the machines is presented.
As a result, the main reasons for the update and the replacement alternatives available that Tetra Pak Colombia could present to its customers were determined and finally the different benefits of migrating the control systems to the most recent versions were established.
