In PCB holes drilling process, the time taken for a task completion heavily rely on the distance travels by the drill bit of the CNC machine. In order to minimize the distance traveled by the drill bit, Firefly Algorithm can be used. The proposed model applies Firefly Algorithm to search for the opt...
