Production Planning in Printed Circuit Board Assembly

Jouni Smed, Production Planning in Printed Circuit Board Assembly. TUCS Dissertations 36. Turku Centre for Computer Science, 2002.

Abstract:

In this thesis, we approach production planning in printed circuit
board (PCB) assembly from theoretical and practical point of view.
We discuss technical aspects of PCB assembly concentrating on
problems associated with component insertion. We review the
literature and form a hierarchical classification scheme for
production planning problems encountered in PCB assembly. In
addition, we enlist the subproblems associated with each problem
class and discuss their relevance. This study also includes three
software systems developed for real-world production planning in
PCB assembly. We present each of these systems, analyze their design
and implementation, and review their effect on the production.
