Integration of MES and hardware significantly improves productivity.
Benefits of integrating MES with other systems
- Increased efficiency: MES can track the entire production process, including material management, production scheduling, equipment maintenance, etc., to optimize production efficiency and quality. Semiconductor production lines are typically highly automated, and MES can assist in managing both automated equipment and manual operations to increase production efficiency.
- Improved quality: MES can monitor various aspects of the production process to ensure that products meet quality requirements. As any product defect can lead to the failure of the entire product, product quality is critical. MES can coordinate various production processes to ensure product quality.
- Data integration: MES can integrate data from various manufacturing processes, such as equipment, materials, and personnel, to assist companies in making more informed decisions. The semiconductor industry’s production process is highly complex, and MES can help companies integrate various production and quality control information to improve decision-making efficiency.
- Increased flexibility: MES can improve production line flexibility, helping companies adjust production processes more quickly to meet market changes. The semiconductor industry’s technology changes rapidly, and companies need to continually adjust production processes to meet market demand. MES can help companies adjust production lines more quickly.
Increase overall productivity
- AGVs (automated guided vehicle) can replace manual labor for handling, improving operational efficiency.
- IIoT can automatically analyze machine-generated parameter files and create charts, which can be analyzed for improvements.
- Reducing human errors by automatically transferring data from the production line to ERP systems
- Improving real-time monitoring of production line data, and management level can grasp the latest conditions from the decision-making platform.
Improve quality, yield rate and operation efficiency
- The equipment management module of EXC-MES provides preventive maintenance and repair management functions and can monitor equipment status down to the equipment port and chamber. It can also calculate and monitor material consumption on equipment.
- The quality module of EXC-MES can analyze test data sent by machines to ensure compliance and SPC control and handle non-conforming products.
- The material module of EXC-MES provides material batch issuance and automatic deduction for production order issuance.
