INTELLIGENT SIMULATION ENVIRONMENT FOR PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD ASSEMBLY

To provide an environment where a user can build up realistic models to identify bottlenecks, analyze the assembly line to enhance system performance in terms of productivity, queues, and cycle times as well as lead times are important areas for today's electronics manufacturing. A newly designed and developed simulation template for modeling of electronics manufacturing by using the latest achievement in object-oriented simulation software Arena is presented. The intelligent based dynamic machine knowledge, which can capture dynamic based activities using fuzzy system is also developed. The designed PCB template shows a high flexibility and good performance at an internal supply chain level and self-development, which are user-friendly. This study shows how modeling and simulation tools can be used and integrated to implement highly automated systems for industrial process in which we deal flexible product. In such context, a software prototype for the PCB with dynamic and static behavior of the material is designed and the approach is presented with real life applications, which are developed in the electronic industries of Singapore.
