Exploratory Analysis of the Market Trend of Power Transformers in Mexico for Manufacturing Sector for Exportation

Abstract

The electric sector continues in constant development, the requirements that the market demands must be included in the design and manufacturing processes of the components that make up the grid, such as the Power Transformers. The objective of the research presented is to know the general characteristics that impact the design and manufacture of transformers in Mexico, for which, four stages were identified as part of the General Methodology, which includes the niche market, the companies that manufactures in Mexico, the volume of exported transformers, as well as the suppliers and raw materials that are necessary for their production. For which a literary research was carried out, also the consultation in secondary sources, field research in a manufacturing company, and analysis of statistical data through the Minitab program, and a comparison of the bill of materials (BOM) of the transformers with the highest export index. All this will allow us to know, influence and improve the design and manufacturing of transformers.
