A method and apparatus for simulating the functioning of various configurations of fabrication and test equipment within a manufacturing line creates a schedule for dispatching of the production lots to the manufacturing line. Based on the product mix forecast, the product volume forecast, the predicted sales schedule, the sales confidence, the actual sales order descriptions, and the product delivery schedule, a potential product dispatch schedule is established that enables a product to be fabricated within the manufacturing line. An equipment dispatch schedule for equipment employed in fabrication and testing of the product to be fabricated is defined according to the product dispatch schedule. The potential product dispatch schedule is then simulated based on the process and test equipment model. Upon completion of the simulation, the potential product dispatch schedule is assessed for optimization.

An electronic apparatus is disclosed for receiving and distributing confidential papers. This apparatus comprises: (a) a motor, which is connected to a plurality of gears, a plurality of transmission belts, and a plurality of correlated rollers, for transferring printed papers from a printer output to one of a plurality of closed-type paper bins via an arched paper guiding plate; (b) means for providing a computer signal to control the selection of the closed-type paper bin for sending the printed papers; (c) a main lock control system provided for locking and unlocking the closed-type paper bins in their entirety; (d) a plurality of independent lock control modules, each of the independent lock control modules being provided for everyone of the closable paper bins; (e) lock opening means provided with the independent lock control modules which allows a user to lock and unlock one of the closed-type paper bins by entering a set of computer-set codes.

Electronically distributing and confidential paper receiver

This invention discloses a sheet feeder which comprises a plurality of micro switches, a light sensitive switch, and a controller board having an erasable programmable read only memory (EPROM) for receiving signals from the micro switch and sending pre-programmed responses to control the movement a pair of motors which in turn cause a paper carrying elevator to ascend and send the feed paper sheets into a laser printer. The capacity of the sheet feeder of this invention is several times that of a conventional tray-shaped sheet feeder. The front face of this sheet feeder is provided with a receiving rack, each of whose two ends is furnished with an oblong hole. A sheet guide is pivotally connected to the sheet feeder using two small round bolts inserted through the two oblong holes respectively. The height of the sheet guide can be adjusted within a given limit to accommodate the varying feeding port height of a wide variety of laser printers. The sheet guide can be folded down completely against the front face of the sheet feeder to provide packing and shipping convenience.
