MAINTENANCE

1 Overview
The PanaCIM Feeder Maintenance Application is designed to track the location and
production statistics associated with feeder resources within a factory. It supports both
scheduled and reactive feeder maintenance along with recording of the maintenance
operations that were performed. Problem feeders can be identified even as they move
between placement machines.
Through Feeder Maintenance, feeders within the factory can be located, marked for
repair, entered from the database, redefined in the database, and traced historically
through their repair records in the database.

2 Configuration
Before performing any Maintenance operations, the Feeder Maintenance Module must
be configured for use. This section guides you through the Feeder Maintenance
configuration process.
Note: It is assumed that all feeders have been barcoded before attempting
configuration. Reference the required barcode parsers below for both equipment types
below:
Traditional Equipment:

Single Feeders:
Double Feeders:

^A\([A-Z0-9]\{3\}\)[ ]*$
^B\([A-Z0-9]\{3\}\)[ ]*$

Modular I & II Equipment:

Single Feeders:
Double Feeders:

^\([F]\{1\}[A-Z0-9]\{3\}[2-9]\{1\}[A-Z0-9]\{10\}\)[ ]*$
^\([F]\{1\}[A-Z0-9]\{3\}[1]\{1\}[A-Z0-9]\{10\}\)[ ]*$

Reference the table below for a brief overview of what Applications will be used to fulfill
various configuration settings.

scheduled (automatic) or manual basis. Thresholds are pre-defined by machine family,
supply type, and pitch. Feeders can be tagged by Operators using a scanner, and
Supervisors can tag a feeder using the Feeder Maintenance Application.
Note: PanaCIM automatically tags feeders for scheduled maintenance once each day
using real time pickup count data from supporting machines.
Refer to the action table below to tag a feeder at the Operator level using a scanner.

(identified by *) must be defined by a Supervisor for a feeder before it can have any
repairs logged. Once defined, you will be able to generate reports of feeder inventories
based on a feeders attributes.

Attribute

Description

Item Unique ID*

(Feeder ID)

The unique ID of the feeder. Traditional equipment utilizes a 3character feeder ID, which is affixed to the feeder post-purchase.
Modular I & II equipment use a feeder serial number already
provided on each feeder. This feeder serial number is located on
each feeder both as a visible and scanable ID, and internally in the
EPROM of the intelligent feeder.
Select the number of different parts the selected feeder can hold.
Each position on a feeder that can hold a unique part is a subslot.
Most feeders will only have one, but some can hold two or ever four
different components.
Select the family of assembly machines on which the selected
feeder is used.
Select the type of carriage the selected feeder can be mounted on.

3.6 Define New Feeder Attributes Using PanaCIM

The Feeder Maintenance Application allows Supervisor level users to create templates
for use when defining the attributes of a group of feeders for the first time. Using
templates will reduce the amount of data entry required to define attributes for feeder
stock. You may define your feeders one at a time, or multiple feeders at once.
