Diseño de factibilidad de la automatización de la industria del café en Loja usando robots. Análisis técnicoeconómico

Abstract

Abstract: In the present titling work, the technical/economic analysis of a feasibility design for the preparation and sale of robotized Loja coffee is carried out. The lack of technology in the coffee industry, lack of product customization and low sales are the main problems. The characteristics of automation and robotics solve the problems of this industry, allowing the modernization of the industry and promoting a new sales system. The coffee preparation experience is achieved using a robotic arm as a barista. To demonstrate the feasibility of investment, the NPV and IRR calculations are used, finding the economic values necessary to make the project investment profitable within a period of three years. The results obtained from the VAN and IRR show the feasibility of investment, showing a value that meets the rule for the profitability of the project.
