This research develops a memetic algorithm to solve Printed Circuit Board (PCB) scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times on a single machine with constrained feeder capacity. The objective of the scheduling problem is to minimize the total weighted tardiness. A memetic algorithm-based heuristics is developed by integrating a genetic algorithm, Minimum Slack Time (MST) scheduling rule, “Keep Tool Needed Soonest” (KTNS) policy, and a local search procedure. Application of the MA results in two outcome plans: a scheduling plan and a feeder setup plan.Numerical experiments show that compared to a number of commonly used dispatching rules, the memetic algorithm provides better solutions in term of minimum total weighted tardiness. Even the computation is the highest, it still practical. Calibration of MA parameter values is also explored in this study.
