[0056] The following is the procedure for calculating the installation position index:
[0057] import numpy as np
[0058] def calculate_wzzb(num,p1,p_d,d,a,ch,s_a):

[0069] return:
[0070] -wzzb: Installation location indicator.
[0071] """
[0072] #Calculate the integral part
[0073] integral_part=np.trapz(p_d*d,d)
[0074] #Calculate the sum of the accessories
[0075] sum_ch_sa=sum(ch_i / s_a_i for ch_i,s_a_iin zip(ch,s_a))
[0076] # Calculate WZZB
[0077] wzzb=(num*p1+integral_part)*sum_ch_sa
[0078] return wzzb
[0079] # Example input parameters
[0080] num=1000#Assume the number of pixels is 1000
[0081] p1=150#Assume the perimeter of the base edge is 150
[0082] p_d = np.array([0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4]) #Assuming distance weight function
[0083] d = np.array([1,2,3,4]) #corresponding distance
[0084] a=3 #The number of accessories is 3
[0085] ch=[50,60,70]#Number of pixels of accessory position deviation
[0086] s_a = [500, 600, 700] # Standard pixel number of accessories

[0088] wzzb=calculate_wzzb(num,p1,p_d,d,a,ch,s_a)
[0089] print("Installation location indicator WZZB:",wzzb)
[0090] Calculate the product's installation equipment index according to the following formula:

[0096] Specifically, the input signal during the trial is the test signal, and the output signal is the signal output after the test signal passes through the product CPO micro connector.
[0097] The quality index of the product is calculated according to the following formula:
[0098] ZLZB=e -WZZB +e -SBZB +e -SYZB
[0099] Among them, ZLZB is the quality index. The larger the index is, the better the quality of the product is. e is a natural constant.
[0100] S6, the user interaction module displays the calculated quality indicators and various data collected by the acquisition module.
[0101] Specifically, the user interaction module determines whether the product is qualified by judging whether the quality indicator is greater than the quality indicator threshold corresponding to the product model. When the quality indicator is greater than the quality indicator threshold corresponding to the product model, the product is qualified, and the user interaction module will display the product's qualification status.
[0102] Furthermore, the assembly module assembles the accessories into a pluggable CPO micro connector of the model to be produced according to the control command, including the following steps:

[0108] The beneficial effects of this solution are: 1. By setting quality indicators to evaluate the quality of products and providing different quality indicator thresholds for different product models, it is conducive to personalized evaluation of the quality of different products and to improve the pertinence of the system in quality detection.

Generate corresponding control commands by selecting the product model produced by the user, and use the control commands to realize the automatic assembly of pluggable CPO micro connectors, which is conducive to improving the degree of automation of generation, and by setting quality indicators, it is conducive to realizing automatic detection of product quality.
[0110] Embodiment 2: This embodiment should be understood to include all the features of any of the above embodiments, and further improves on the basis thereof, and also includes a performance analysis method for a production line, which evaluates the performance of the production line as a whole by obtaining production line performance indicators. In Embodiment 1, only a single product is checked by quality indicators, and the production line is not checked according to the quality of each product. This embodiment checks the entire production line by production line performance indicators, so as to determine whether the quality problem of the product is due to a single accident or a problem with the production line, and includes the following steps:
[0111] Specifically, first select the quality indicators of products with smaller fluctuations (that is, the quality indicators with a smaller difference from the overall average quality indicators):
[0112] The fluctuation limit is calculated according to the following formula:
[0113] UP=VER+Y*(MAX-MIN)

The more products produced in this batch, the smaller the value of the sample parameter.
[0115] like Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 This is a graph showing the relationship between the upper limit of fluctuation and the maximum and minimum values of the quality indicators of the products produced in this batch, assuming that VER is 1.5 and Y is 1.
[0116] The fluctuation lower limit is calculated according to the following formula:
[0117] DOWN=VER-Y*(MAX-MIN)
[0118] Among them, DOWN is the lower limit of fluctuation, VER is the average quality index of the products produced in this batch, Y is the sample parameter, MAX is the maximum value of the quality index of the products produced in this batch, MIN is the minimum value of the quality index of the products produced in this batch, and the sample parameter is set by technical personnel in this field between 0.1 and 2 according to the number of products produced in this batch. The more products produced in this batch, the smaller the value of the sample parameter.
[0119] Eliminate the quality indicators that are greater than the upper and lower limits of fluctuation from the data, and calculate the production line performance indicators based on the remaining quality indicators;
[0120] The production line performance index is calculated according to the following formula:
[0121]
[0122] Among them, SCXZB is the production line performance index, VER is the average quality index of the products produced in this batch, N is the number of quality indicators remaining after removing some quality indicators, max is the maximum value of the remaining quality indicators after removing some quality indicators, min is the minimum value of the remaining quality indicators after removing some quality indicators, ZLZB n is the value of the nth quality indicator remaining after removing some quality indicators, and ver is the mean value of the remaining quality indicators after removing some quality indicators.
[0123] Specifically, when the value of the production line performance indicator is greater than the quality indicator threshold, it is considered that there is a problem with the production line and the equipment needs to be adjusted.
[0124] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: by setting the production line performance index, it is helpful to judge whether there is a problem with the production line through the quality index, and it is helpful for the staff to judge whether the production line needs to be adjusted according to the production line performance index.
