High-mix electronics manufacturing demands intelligent planning
Electronics and SMT manufacturing operates in a world of ever-increasing product variety, shrinking lifecycles, and relentless pressure on delivery performance. The planning challenge is not just volume — it is managing the complexity of thousands of SKUs, deep BOMs, and rapid changeovers.
How APlanner addresses electronics challenges
APlanner brings AI-driven scheduling intelligence to high-mix electronics manufacturing — optimizing changeovers, managing BOM complexity, and sensing demand shifts before they impact your lines.
High-mix scheduling optimization
AI-optimized scheduling that groups similar products, minimizes changeovers, and maximizes line efficiency. Intelligent sequencing considers feeder setup, program changes, and operator skills.
BOM intelligence
Deep integration with component availability data. Automatic flagging of material constraints. Alternative component suggestions when primary parts are constrained.
Setup optimization
Intelligent sequencing that considers feeder setup time, program changes, and operator skill requirements. Reduce non-productive time while maintaining flexibility.
Demand sensing
Near-real-time demand signals from customers, with automatic plan adjustment recommendations. Respond to changes before they become problems.
