Optimizing High-Value Asset Oversight.
Semiconductor manufacturing relies on expensive and specialized assets such as photomasks, wafers, and precision tools. Losing track of these items can lead to costly downtime or inefficiencies.
Your production system loses visibility between moves.
Loss or misplacement of high-value items, manual inventory processes prone to errors, and downtime due to unavailable or unmaintained tools — each blind interval is a stalled lot, an idle engineer, and a yield risk.
Continuous asset visibility — alongside your existing systems.
RFID tags are attached to assets for real-time location tracking. Automated inventory systems update asset status instantly. Alerts notify staff of misplaced items or maintenance needs — no re-integration, no production interruption, no contamination risk.
RFID tags attached to assets for real-time location tracking
RFID tags are attached to every carrier, reticle, and calibration kit. Readers at every OHT handoff, tool-load zone, and vault entry capture each event the moment it happens — timestamped, signed, and queryable. No manual scan, no radio call, no gap in the record.
Automated inventory systems update asset status instantly
Events flow directly to your existing MES via standard APIs, or run on the MFSYS console standalone. Asset status updates the moment a carrier moves — whether by OHT, AGV, or an engineer carrying it by hand.
Alerts notify staff of misplaced items or maintenance needs
If a carrier sits idle past threshold, strays from its route, or fails to arrive at the next tool — the right person is notified immediately. Route history is queryable against output data to trace yield excursions to a specific carrier path.
Reduced Losses
Every carrier, reticle, and calibration kit tracked in real time — misplaced items surface immediately before they impact yield.
Improved Efficiency
Automated inventory updates eliminate manual scans and radio calls. Engineers find what they need in seconds, not minutes.
Enhanced Uptime
Maintenance alerts fire before tools sit idle past threshold — keeping equipment available and production on schedule.
Cleanroom Compliance
Purpose-built tags rated for ISO Class 1–5 environments. Cleanroom suit usage and wash cycles tracked per garment.
Complete Visibility
Unified tracking across carriers, reticles, and calibration kits — from bay to tool to vault, with no gap in the record.
Operational Excellence
Every asset movement permanently recorded — provable chain of custody for every lot, every step, auditable at any time.
The fab workflows where a blind minute costs a wafer start.
Carrier tracking across bays
Every carrier movement logged automatically at every OHT handoff and manual move — no radio calls, no manual scanning.
Reticle library check-in/out
Reticles tracked from vault to tool-load and back — full chain of custody without manual log entries or paper travelers.
Calibration kit tracking
Tag calibration kits and surface their last location in seconds — no paging the maintenance team, no production delay.
Cross-facility lot tracking
Lot carriers tagged at source and tracked through every inter-fab hand-off — readable and queryable at the destination facility.
