Abstract :
A model is presented for predicting the cost of manufacturing printed wiring boards. The model represents manufacturing systems currently in use in the industry. The model concentrates on surface-mount technology, using a mixture of automatic, programmable-assembly and manual-assembly techniques. The model includes elements to account for inventory, assembly, and test and rework costs. The model also considers the effect of introducing a component type on total manufacturing cost.<>
