COMPONENT REPLENISHMENT SUPPORT METHOD AND COMPONENT REPLENISHMENT SUPPORT SYSTEM IN COMPONENT MOUNTING LINE

摘要

Provided are a component replenishment support method, and a component replenishment support system of a component mounting line that are capable of preventing a decrease in facility operation rate due to component shortage, in which a component shortage time of each part feeder is predicted, a component replenishment work is started from the present time in a case where the component shortage time is earlier than the virtual work end time, a virtual work end time of the work target selection feeders in a case where the work is assumed to be performed in sequence of early time by using the part feeder within the warning consideration start time as a target is predicted, and a worker is warned of a man-hour lack to the selection feeder, in a case where the selection feeder of which the component shortage time is earlier than the work end time is present.

主权项

1. A component replenishment support method in a component mounting line including a component mounting apparatus that pulls out a component supplied from a plurality of part feeders and mounts the component on a substrate, the method comprising:
a component shortage time prediction step of predicting a component shortage time of each of the plurality of part feeders; a selection step of selecting a part feeder of which the component shortage time exceeds a predetermined warning start time, and is within a warning consideration start time preceding the warning start time as at least one selection feeder, from the plurality of part feeders; a first work end time prediction step of starting component replenishment work from the later time of either a time at which the component replenishment work is ended in all of the part feeders of which the component shortage time is within the warning start time after a start of the component replenishment work from the present time, or an overtime of a case where the component shortage time of any of the at least one selection feeder exceeds a time at which the component shortage time firstly reaches the warning start time, and predicting a first component replenishment work end time of the at least one selection feeder in a case where the component replenishment work is assumed to be performed in sequence of early component shortage time by using the at least one selection feeder as a target; a second work end time prediction step of starting component replenishment work from the present time in a case where the at least one selection feeder of which the component shortage time is earlier than the first component replenishment work end time is present, and predicting a second component replenishment work end time of the at least one selection feeder in a case where the component replenishment work is assumed to be performed in sequence of early component shortage time by using the part feeder of which the component shortage time is within the warning consideration start time as a target; and a first warning step of warning a man-hour lack to the at least one selection feeder, in a case where the at least one selection feeder of which the component shortage time is earlier than the second component replenishment work end time is present.
