“…The system has been applied to inner layer scrubbing processes and drilling processes for PCB fabrication and the reflow soldering process for surface mounting of chips or devices on PCB. 12 Park and Dang (2012) applied a heuristic approach and experimental design technique to an in-line induction heating process in automotive crankshaft manufacturing in order to find an optimal operating condition that can improve energy efficiency. They considered voltage and frequency as the key operating parameters and devised a proper heating strategy.…”

Recently, efficient use of energy resources has become a very critical issue in most industries due to various reasons such as the high price of energy resources and environmental problems. The printed circuit board (PCB) industry is known as one of the major manufacturing industries that consumes a moderately large amount of electricity. Of all PCB manufacturing processes, the photolithography process is the most complicated. The photolithography process consists of: 1) a lamination process; 2) an exposure process; and, 3) a development process. Particularly, the lamination process appears to consume the most energy among the entire PCB manufacturing processes. This is due to the use of high temperatures and high pressures in that process which are required to employ photo sensitive dry film resist-coating on the panel. In addition, the PCB panel quality after the lamination process is highly dependent on conditions of three main operating parameters, temperature, pressure, and conveyor belt speed. In this research, we employ designed experiments and model-building techniques to obtain optimal settings of the three main operating parameters which will simultaneously minimize energy consumption while maximizing the probability of creating a non-defective PCB panel during the lamination process.

Abstract:The South Korean government is providing full support for green IT as one of the growth engines of Korea. The purpose of this study is to derive policy issues needed for the sustainable development of Korea through utilizing Big Data by applying green IT. The analysis is done using a Delphi technique. Results show that the establishment of computing platforms that can easily share data and generate value is prioritized for the effective use of Big Data from the environment. In addition, the government-led publication of genetic information and electronic medical records for research purposes has been derived as an important policy issue for the use of bio-Big Data. Besides, a guideline concerning the standardization of machine to machine and Internet of Things communication and data security is needed to effectively use Big Data from machines/things. Moreover, a review of legislation related to the utilization of Big Data from digital media has been derived as an important policy issue. The results of this study propose the direction in which the Korean government should move for green growth through effective utilization of Big Data. The results can be also useful resources for establishing relevant policies for various countries that are accelerating sustainable development.

“…Since energy can be considered as one of materials required for making products in manufacturing companies, energy resources should be managed through a series of activities such as estimation of energy requirements, measurement of amounts of energy consumed, and analysis of energy efficiency [4]. In the end, main functions of the ERM system were drawn to support these activities.…”

Since energy comprises a meaningful share of total production cost due to its surged cost, manufacturing companies should strive to take energy issues into account when planning and managing production processes and facilities. Energy resources such as electrical power, water, steam, gas, etc. must be monitored and managed as any other traditional enterprise resources. The aim of this paper is to develop the ERM system for monitoring and management of energy resources consumed in manufacturing processes and for analysis of energy efficiency of those processes. The system was implemented in the post-drill cleaning process, one of the processes to produce PCBs. The amounts of electrical power consumed per hour during the process were estimated by means of the ERM system. It was shown through the experimental measurement using the system that the heat drying process is possible with a decrease of about 33% in the electrical power consumption.
