Development of An MES for A PCB Manufacturing System

인쇄회로기판 생산라인의 MES 구축 연구

Productivity and quality stability are very important competitive factors in PCB manufacturing lines that process the multiple types of products with the mixed process flows under frequent order information changes. MES is an appropriate IT solution to solve these problems in the medium-sized PCB manufacturing company. This paper introduces the MES development and its effects for a medium-sized PCB manufacturing company. The main functions of an implemented MES are delivery simulation, production scheduling, and production process monitoring. Productivity are improved up to $10{\sim}20%$ and manufacturing lead times per order are shortened up to 2 days according to the manufacturing scenarios.
