State of Semiconductor FAB automation in 2025

April 30, 2025May 2, 2025 Leave a comment

In a recent discussion with my colleague Wesley Capar – talking about FAB automation and what the overall situation in the current difficult business environment might be – we came up with the idea to ask YOU – the industry experts on your opinion. Since the situation is likely very different between state of the…… Continue reading State of Semiconductor FAB automation in 2025

Importance of carrier location tracking – part 2

April 23, 2025May 2, 2025 Leave a comment

This post will be all about the advantages and capabilities of RFID based carrier tracking. But before I dive into this – here are the results from the poll from part 1: Based on this more than half of the legacy FABs have no complete location tracking of all carries in place. In my opinion…… Continue reading Importance of carrier location tracking – part 2
