Abstract
Provided is a method for allocating assemblies to placement lines for placing components on the assemblies, in order to achieve a minimum variation in components with a predefinable maximum capacity utilization in terms of time for each placement line, wherein the component variation is determined as the sum of the number of component types required on the placement lines and an expected production time is determined for each assembly type of the assemblies to be provided with components and for each placement line, taking into consideration each cycle time for the assembly type on the placement line, each reset time, the degree of utilization for each line and the expected number of pieces to be produced for each assembly type.
