Bottlenecks, part 2

December 18, 2021December 18, 2021 2 Comments

A big thank you to everyone who voted in my little poll, here are the results: I kind of expected a picture like this – but what does this mean ? Here is my interpretation: Bottlenecks are widely known as the one thing one should work on 1st to improve the overall FAB performance. But…… Continue reading Bottlenecks, part 2

Bottlenecks, part 1

December 11, 2021January 14, 2022 6 Comments

Almost 15 years ago I had the opportunity to attend a 4 day seminar with the authors of the well known book “Factory Physics” LINK In the opening session we talked about what is limiting factory performance and sure enough bottlenecks came up. The question was asked , what can be done to improve a…… Continue reading Bottlenecks, part 1
