Taking a tour of all of Norte de Santander and its Metropolitan area (Cúcuta, El Zulia, Villa del Rosario, Los Patios) it is announced that this city is one of the richest in clay material occupied by ceramic industries that make or develop different types of products that are derived from clay, that is why we objectively focus on this research carried out, revealing the importance of handling raw material very well since it can determine its composition, structure and quality of the material , in order to better observe the behavior that it is going to present throughout its process. With these controls that can be carried out in Nortesantandereanas companies, we determine in the geological formations of some municipalities of Cúcuta, therefore using some technological analyzes such as X-ray fluorescence, diffraction analysis, infrared analysis, thermal characteristics, soil analysis , physical-ceramic characteristics, which are of great help in the final results of these sample tests carried out previously, with which we can determine which clay or which mixture is the ideal for the manufacture of the products to be carried out in the companies that require it, since these analyzes are techniques applied to clay samples to be able to easily detect the usefulness of said material and save control time in the quality of the product and facilitate the management of the processes, the importance of apply these tools and methods in companies of ceramic industries since in it s Material costs could be saved and continuous improvement of the product to be sold could be obtained, in order to achieve a better level of competitiveness in innovative sectors..
