INTRODUCTION

This project report is intricate technology oriented and

aims to analyse the assembly line for both technologies
(THC & SMT), study the efficiency of machines involved
and suggest methods to improve productivity and quality.
The two most prominent methods to mount components
over PCB are Through Hole construction and surface
mount Technology.
This project report aims at providing an insight into the
basic building blocks essential for the manufacturing of
circuit card assembly line and understands the basic
functions of each machine used in the mill for the same.
The present first pass yield of logic cards vary from 85 to
92 out of 100. This yield determines the productivity and
efficiency of the line and hence is very important to
improve. The ideal fist pass yield by industry standards is
95 on 100. This project aims at data mining related to the
yield and analyze the reasons behind it. Also to provide
suggestions to improve the production by increasing first
pass yield and improving quality of production.

LIPI DATA An organizational profile:

Lippi data systems Ltd. were started in 1986 a time
when only International Computer Giants like IBM and ICL
were present in India.
Adjusting to ever changing business environment and
prevailing market situation, Lippi took advantage of the
technology license from data Products Corporation of
U.S.A. and Tally, Germany (both the companies are world
leaders in the field of high speed computer printers) and
put the right foot forward, caption for its vast range of
high speed heavy duty line printers, dot matrix printers,
fanfold laser priners and printer suppliers. In dact, Lippi
printersare sold along with all leading computer systems.
Its list of customers comprises top Indian OEMs, various
government houses and corporate sectors such as
banking and finace, airling, insurance, automobile etc.
Motivation:
1. This project aims at providing an insight into the
basic building blocks essential for the manufacturing
of circuit card assembly line understand and basic
functions of each maching used in the mill for the
same.
2. The present first pass yield of logic cards vary from
85 to 92 out of 100. This yield determines the
Productivity and efficiency of the line and henc is
very important to improve. The ideal first pass yield
by industry standards is 95 on 100. This project aims
at data mining related to the yield and analyse the

reasons behind it. Also to provide suggestions to

improve the productivity by increasing first pass yield
and improving quality of production.

Organization of the project Report:

The project report includes all the theory and
practical learning experience during the project
study. The flow of report is similar to the way work
was carried on. First all the steps involved in
mounting of components and soldering are described
in detail, various machines involved in these
processes, their main features and working. Then,
the data collected from copany for four months is
analysed and interpreted by making pie charts and
using statistical tools likes pareto Analysis. As per the
faults detected, the root causes for them are found
and methods to improve them are suggested.
Inspection of solder paste deposit is presently used
technology and the modern improved laser scanning
where it stores 3D data around the object can be
used for inspection of component placement. The
suggested technique was appreciated by the guide.
But economically it was foung slightly cost inefficient
due to production constraints.

Card printers, Laser printers, Thermal printers, Spare
Consumables for entire range of printers (e.g.
Ribbon, Cartridges etc) to cater the specific needs of
Indian market.
Lippi data systems limited came into existence in
October 1986, when it commenced the production of

line printers under technical collaboration computer

printers.
Under technology license from Data products USA,
Lippi has served this nation by producing Heavy Duty
line printers of model B-series (I.e. B300, B600, BI
000 modls), while it sustained monopoly in the Asian
market as being the sole manufacturer of line matrix
printers. The life cycle of B-series printers has now

Global Partnership of Lippi:

With the sole aim of providing Indian customers the best
and latest in computer printing technology, Lipi has
global tie-ups with the following International Giants for
transfer of technical know-how and marketing of their
products.
Printronix, USA for the production full range of high-speed
computer line matrix printers of 6600 series. Printronix,
USA enjoys today the enviable reputation of being the
world leader in high speed computers printers,
