An Algorithm of Feeder Arrangement and Pickup Sequencing of Component Placement Machine on Printed Circuit Board

摘要

It is important that a production schedule considerably affects the production time of a printed circuit board in component placement machines. In this paper, we formulate the feeder arrangement problem and the pick up sequencing problem that is one of the problem determined in a component placement machine. In addition, we proposed algorithms that are based on local search heuristic. We show that the proposed algorithm gives satisfactory results.
