Note: It is possible to start this wizard from Director by clicking the icon for it in the

[MultiJobLineBalancer] section of the icon bar.

2. Click [Next] to proceed to the next step.

3. Click [Add] and the [Select Job] dialog box displays.

4. Using the dialog box, locate and select the jobs on which to perform multi job line

balancing.

Note: Hold down Ctrl when selecting multiple jobs.

5. Select the side of the panel to be line balanced and then click [OK] in the dialog box that

is displayed.

Note: It is possible to change the side after this step by right-clicking the job name in the list and

then specifying the side in the shortcut menu.

6. Continue adding jobs until all of the jobs you want to line balance have been specified.

7. If you want to specify production quantity settings for jobs, right-click the job name and

then select [Enter the production quantity] and then specify the production quantity in

the dialog box and click [OK].

8. If you want to prioritize production for a side of the panel in a job, then right-click the job

name and then specify the side from [Prioritizing Production].

9. Once all of the jobs and desired settings have been specified, click [Next] to display Step

10.Click the [...] button and specify the name of the job to be used for the line/feeder setup.

11.In the [Feeder allocation setting] group box, select the feeder allocation method to be

used.

12.In the [Settings] group box, select the appropriate setting.

Setting Description

Consider the

allocation of all

feeders

All of the variable status feeders for the job in the [Job used

for line or feeder setup] setting are not moved from their

position as much as possible (a feeder will be altered if

necessary for other jobs). Fixed and reserved feeder

positions from this job cannot be altered.

Consider the

allocation of

Reserved and Fixed

feeders only

Fixed and reserved feeder positions for the job in the [Job

used for line or feeder setup] setting cannot be altered, but

the variable status feeders can be altered freely.

Setting Description

Group jobs for

batch changeover:

A common feeder allocation for multiple jobs is created and

the jobs are grouped. There are times when multiple

groups are possible. In this case, changeover between

groups occurs but the groups do not share a common

feeder allocation.

13.If there is XPF machines in the lines then select the [Support XPF] setting. If there are

no XPF machines or you wish to not consider them during line balancing, then do not

select this option.

14.Click [Next] to proceed to the next step.

15.In the [Changeover parameters] group box, set the parameters you want to use for the

machine concerning changeover conditions.

16.In the [Specify modules that should avoid changeover whenever possible] box, select

the appropriate modules. This option is enabled only if the following two settings have

been made in the previous step.

• Feeder allocation setting: Consider the allocation of Reserved and Fixed

feeders only

• Settings: Reduce feeder changeover times.

17.Click [Next] to display the step for specifying the production order and conveyance

method.

18.Set the production order for the jobs by using one of the methods below.

• To optimize the production order, click [Optimize]. Select the optimization

method for the production order and then click [OK] in the dialog box that is

displayed.

• To manually edit the production order, select a job and use the [Up] and [Down]

buttons to change the order.

19.Specify the panel conveyance method for the jobs, by right-clicking them and selecting

the method you want to use from the shortcut menu.

20.Click [Next] to display the next step.

21.Specify the optimizer options you want to use.

Reduce feeder

changeover times:

A common feeder allocation for multiple jobs is created and

the jobs are grouped. There are times when multiple

groups are possible. In this case, changeover between

groups occurs. However, the feeder allocation of the

previous group is considered. As a result, a feeder

allocation is created that reduces feeder allocation

changeover as much as possible. Compared to [Group

jobs for batch changeover], the number of feeder

changeovers is reduced. However, it is difficult to balance

the cycle time.

Calculate

changeover method

from production

count and cycle

time:

The program automatically calculates whether it is more

beneficial to prioritize changeover or cycle time before

optimization. (When this option is selected, select an

optimization level (Low, Mid, High).

Setting Description

Display cycle time

graph

If this option is selected, then a cycle time graph is

displayed during processing.

22.If performing paired module production, then specify the settings you want to use below.

23.Click [Next] to display the next step.

24.Select the check boxes next to feeders and nozzles that are available. Clear the check

boxes next to any feeders or nozzles that are not available.

25.Click [Next] to display the final step.

Allocate parts with

excessive

sequences to

multiple modules

This specifies whether or not parts with many placements

will be broken up into multiple feeders and set into different

modules. If this is selected, parts with many placements

will be set in multiple feeders and placed on multiple

modules if possible.

Divide parts on

fixed feeders

Specify whether to reallocate parts on fixed feeders when

[Allocate parts with excessive sequences to multiple

modules] is selected. When this is selected, parts on fixed

feeders can be allocated to other modules to reduce cycle

time.

Optimize nozzle

station

This specifies whether the nozzle allocation should be

optimized or not. If this is selected, the nozzles in the

nozzle station will be changed to be "optimized" for

production. If this is not selected, then optimization is

performed without changing the nozzle setup.

Used feeder type Specify the whether of not reel holders are on the feeders.

If set to "Reel holder", the optimizer positions feeders in the

feeder setup considering that the feeders have reel

holders. If this is set to "Reel holder-E", the optimizer

positions feeders in the feeder setup considering that

feeders have no reel holders and a bucket type feeder

pallet is used.

Setting Description

Optimize panel

stopping position

This specifies whether or not the panel stopping position is

optimized for paired module production. This is only for M3

modules when they are performing paired module

production.

Optimize for single

module production

This specifies whether or not paired module production is

used for panels between 250 and 305 in length. This

setting has no bearing for panels outside of this range. If

this is not selected and the panel size is within the range,

the M3 modules are automatically paired for paired

production. If this is selected and the panel size is within

the range, the M3 modules are not paired. For panels

smaller than the range, M3 modules are never paired. For

panels larger than the range, M3 modules are always

paired.

Allocate parts in the

interference area to

M6 modules

This specifies whether or not to allocate parts that are in

the head interference area during paired module

production to M6 modules if possible. By selecting this

option, head waiting time during paired module production

is reduced. However, more parts are assigned to the M6

module.
