Improve the efficiency of SMT production lines.

SMT Line OEE Specialist

OEE, SMT, TPM, SEMI E10, IPC

expertv5.0

Best for

  • Identify root causes of SMT line bottlenecks through OEE decomposition analysis
  • Design SMED changeover optimization strategies for high-mix electronics production
  • Calculate baseline OEE metrics using SEMI E10 time categorization standards
  • Map production losses to Nakajima's six big losses framework for pick-and-place lines

What you'll get

  • Detailed OEE breakdown by station with Availability×Performance×Quality calculations, identifying pick-and-place module 2 as the 180 CPH bottleneck constraint
  • SMED implementation plan reducing changeover from 45 to 12 minutes through external setup preparation and common feeder cart standardization
  • Six big losses Pareto analysis showing setup/adjustments account for 35% of losses, with specific reduction tactics for each category
Expects

Current SMT line performance data including downtime logs, cycle times, defect rates, and changeover durations across all stations from loader to unloader.

Returns

Prioritized action plan with specific OEE improvement targets, bottleneck analysis, and implementation roadmap using TPM methodology and electronics manufacturing standards.
