Specifications of Manufacturing operations optimizer (MFO)
Specifications table
| Mounting process simulation | In consideration of “error occurrence in production machines," “parts exchange by operators" and “operatorsʼ travel time," it models a mounting floor, and simulates production conditions including multiple mounting lines and off-line setup processes. This ensures highly accurate simulation results. |
|---|---|
| [Optimization function] Production plan optimization | In consideration of multiple production lines, it optimizes a production plan based on the production conditions set up in [mounting process simulation]. This allows the “production line" and “production order" of each PCB to be calculated / provided automatically. |
| [Optimization function] Setup plan optimization | It optimizes “off-line setup" sequence according to the production plan developed in [production plan optimization]. This allows automatic calculation / provision of “priorities for setups in multiple lines," “a setup plan that takes into account the shred use of carts" and “effects of an increase / decrease in the setup number of operators on the production plan." *The optimization function of “In-line setup" is currently under development. |
| [Optimization function] number of operators optimization | Based on the production conditions set up in [Mounting process simulation], it optimizes the number of operators required for each line and setup, allowing you to automatically calculate / provide “the number of the operators required." |
