Abstract: | An approach for the design of printed circuit board assembly lines integrated with a scheduling methodology is proposed. The goal is to maximize the throughput of the system while keeping WIP inventory levels to a minimum. The proposed design is based on the notion that it is easier to control and schedule flow lines than production lines because for a flow line the scheduling problem is reduced to a sequencing problem. Experimental results for an electronics manufacturer suggest that the approach reduces inventory and achieves high throughput levels. |
