METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING ARRANGEMENT OF PART TYPES, AND DEVICE FOR OPTIMIZING ARRANGEMENT OF PART TYPES

摘要

There is provided a method for optimizing component type arrangement in which multiple component types (P1 to P9) are optimally disposed on multiple installation positions (first to ninth slots SL1 to SL9) when an automatic feeder device (9) which automatically loads the component storage tape (85 and 86), a manual feeder device (7) which does not automatically load the component storage tape, and a reel holding device (6) are installed into the installation positions on a common pallet (5), the method includes a step (S1) of determining a portion (SL3 to SL7) of the multiple installation positions as a fixed position and fixing the determined automatic feeder device to the fixed position; and an optimizing step (S4) of performing a simulation optimally disposing the multiple component types on the multiple installation positions under a condition that the manual feeder device can be moved to an arbitrary installation position other than the fixed position without moving the automatic feeder device from the fixed position. Accordingly, the automatic feeder device can be effectively used and the production efficiency can be improved by comprehensively considering the setup changing work time and the mounting cycle time.
