Manufacturing Methods and Technology Study Covering Methods for Manufacturing Electronic Modules. Final Summary Report of Basic Contract and Two Amendments,

Abstract

The project, made a careful study of current and projected module design and the available means (both manual and automatic) of manufacturing these modules. The objectives were: (1) Define current module designs and establish future design trends; (2) List the equipment currently available for setting up facilities for mechanized fabrication and assembly of electronic modules; (3) Perform a cost analysis at various levels of production for manufacturing facilities with different degrees of mechanization; (4) Design an N/C work center with complete specifications, equipment, layout, and block flow diagrams. Low, medium, and high production levels were treated for a balanced line operaton; (5) Generate military specification information to allow assembly by mechanized equipment; (6) Develop a set of design guidelines for use by MICOM electronic module suppliers; (7) Establish process problem areas of present module systems; (8) Forecast the direction of technological advance and the problem areas that might be encountered; (9) Prepare a set of manufacturing process and workmanship guidelines covering the production of planar printed wiring modules.
