Challenges in Industry Management
Innovative and professional intelligent manufacturing navigator
Facing the changes in the global semiconductor industry, China, South Korea, and Taiwan will still be the top three semiconductor equipment markets in the world. How can semiconductor companies recognize their weaknesses and break through and respond to internal and external challenges and opportunities in a timely manner?
• Shortening product time-to-market
More accurate cost analysis and sales forecasting analysis can help quickly launch products to seize the market, while also grasping the production status and progress of outsourcing manufacturers to determine future wafer and material supply plans.
• Process control capability
Manufacturing and production parameter planning and control must be highly coordinated with upstream and downstream industry needs. Real-time manufacturing information needs to be provided to customers or relevant personnel in the factory for decision-making reference and process control.
• Rapid response to customer needs
Extending management to the production site can improve product quality and traceability. Real-time production data needs to be used to dynamically monitor production behavior.
Site status
Production progress, Equipment status and Utilization rate, Quality control, and Information management.
Material and Finished product Management
Material selection rules, Finished product labeling, Finished product warehouse, etc.
Production quality
Quality traceability, production records, real-time quality control, inspection reports, etc.
Production schedule
utput and Achievement rate, Production status, Work order progress and On-time completion rate.
Abnormal Management
Identifying abnormal factors, Triggers, Risk materials involved in abnormal production, and how to Handle abnormal situations.
What should be done how to do it
Should a machining plan be established? What is the operational status of the equipment? How to manage the production of verification wafers? Which machining program should be used? How to manage the production information of epitaxial growth machines?

How to build an excellent semiconductor industry factory operation control program?
iMES helps enterprises to conduct real-time production monitoring, instant notification, and process tracking for multiple plants and remote locations. It is a new opportunity to deepen knowledge and layout globally for high-tech industries and its upstream and downstream extended industries in the competition of the new generation economy.
Solid basic platform
The iMES system, which is built by using a stack of components, features a multi-layered architecture combining functional modules, basic modules, and industry-specific solutions to create a complete set of MES products. This not only provides a comprehensive service platform for MES but also demonstrates endless growth potential in terms of scalability and expandability.
The most flexible industry service
With the use of programmable components and replaceable industrial knowledge (Business rule cartridges), our solution provides a flexible and rapid approach to incorporate the operational control logic and industry knowledge of each enterprise into the system, effectively enhancing the operational competitiveness of the enterprise, and achieving the goal of industrial upgrading.
Complete resource integration
iMES provides the most comprehensive manufacturing resource management engine, not only with solutions for multiple plants but also for upstream and downstream industry integration. With a complete global logistics network, iMES helps companies effectively manage manufacturing resources.
Advanced Information Technology
iMES is developed on the Microsoft .NET technology platform, with XML Web Service as the foundation, and designed as a multi-layered service-oriented production information system. It can be customized to fit the global manufacturing and operation strategies of enterprises, and provides an integrated operation control system for remote and multi-site management.
The iMES blueprint for wafer and chip manufacturing production and operation management
iMES collecting various on-site production information and providing real-time and accurate information to managers. The system also organizes and analyzes data to assist managers in making informed management decisions.
Implementation Benefits
Effectively solving the three major issues of the semiconductor epitaxy and chip manufacturing industry.
01
Product Management
Realize the control of production processes, equipment, and process parameters for work orders, production batches, cassette numbers, or wafer numbers in the factory floor, so that the real-time and accurate data can be recorded and provide the most accurate and real-time production information to achieve the goal of accuracy and speed.
02
Quality Control (QC)
Quality Control (QC) solutions for managing product quality by real-time collection of various quality information in the manufacturing process, setting alerts and control rules, and gaining insights into process anomalies or trends, enabling immediate corrective action to be taken. This helps to quickly restore normal processes and reduce product defect rates.
03
Equipment Management & Maintenance
Effective tracking and management of production equipment status is essential for grasping equipment status, improving equipment utilization, and ensuring equipment maintenance and repair. This results in increased machine utilization, higher production capacity, and reduced work-in-progress. EMS and EPM systems are equipment control solutions that can accurately and in real-time record all useful information about the equipment and can quickly adjust production lines to meet market demands.
