Hi All
We run 3 different electro-plating process where parts are suspended on 2 different jigs in 3 different size tanks.
We produced small batches but many, many different parts.
We currently use an Excel spreadsheet to calculate how many parts (they can vary from a few mm to around a metre in size with forms) will fit on a jig and therefore the run time per batch etc.
Does anyone know of a commercial software product that will do this as our spread sheet has some, er, qwerks! Around 20% of parts it estimates are way out.
If there isn't a commercial solution I will have to perfect the spreadsheet which may be weeks of work!
thanks
Jon
