Popis: | A network-based simulation model is described to analyze the circuit board insertion process using surface mount technology. The network simulation model is developed using simulation analysis SIMAN designed for an IBM PC/XT or a compatible system. Among the results of the model are workstation utilizations, size of work-in-process inventories at different locations in the process, throughput times and rates, and production costs. Sensitivity analyses are performed on some of the major factors that can effect the efficiency of the system. The model provides a methodology for evaluating alternative production strategies and offers management a tool to develop efficient production policies, thus minimizing capital and operating costs. |
