Advanced Backend Automation Technology

Alan Weber - VP New Product Innovations, Cimetrix by PDF Solutions
Brian Rubow - Director Solutions Engineering, Cimetrix by PDF Solutions

Automating assembly, packaging and test facilities has always faced challenges not seen by their upstream wafer fab counterparts. These include multiple material transformations (and associated carrier types), high product variety and velocity, complex unit product traceability requirements, significant manual intervention, low (relative to wafer fab) unit equipment costs and automation budget, and several others.

Streaming Equipment Data for Smart Manufacturing: Sources, Methods, Uses, and Benefits

Alan Weber; VP New Product Innovations, Cimetrix Connectivity Group, PDF Solutions
Mike Motherway; Smart Factory Product Owner, PDF Solutions

Two key pillars of a Smart Manufacturing implementation strategy for the semiconductor and electronics industries are 1) rapid reaction to important manufacturing events, and 2) predictive modeling of imminent factory conditions. Both depend on real-time access to manufacturing equipment, which supply most of the data used by applications in these two domains. Moreover, the ability to stream this data from a disparate set of sources into a system infrastructure providing fast, reliable, unfettered access to its eventual consumers has become a fundamental requirement for leading manufacturers.

This webinar provides a practical introduction to these topics for Smart Manufacturing stakeholders in several company contexts, including semiconductor and electronics manufacturers as well as their equipment and software suppliers.

SEMI EDA/Interface A Standards: Implementation Best Practices for Equipment Suppliers

Speakers: Alan Weber, VP New Product Innovations, Cimetrix by PDF Solutions, Brian Rubow, Director Solutions Engineering, Tami Tracey, Manager Solutions Engineering

The purpose of this on-demand webinar is to give equipment suppliers the information they need to meet their customers’ requirements for EDA/Interface A implementations on their equipment. This is becoming increasingly important as factories update their automation purchase specifications to support the latest data-hungry AI/ML-based manufacturing applications.

Harnessing the Power of SEMI EDA Standards: Implementation Best Practices

Alan Weber; VP New Product Innovations, Cimetrix Connectivity Group, PDF Solutions
Ranjan Chatterjee; VP of Cimetrix Connectivity Group - Smart Factory, PDF Solutions

The SEMI Equipment Data Acquisition (EDA/Interface A) standards improve the performance and flexibility of communication between a factory's data collection, analysis, and application systems and the factory equipment. You will come away from this second webinar in the series understanding the EDA deployment process and some of the key solution technologies now available to realize the benefits while “future-proofing” the resulting factory systems.

SEMI EDA Standards Are Essential for Smart Manufacturing: What You Need to Know and Why

Speaker: Alan Weber, VP New Product Innovations, Cimetrix by PDF Solutions

As companies implement Smart Factory and Industry 4.0 initiatives on the manufacturing and test operations floor, it is now essential for these AI and machine learning applications to have rapid and easy access to the massive amount of data that is being generated. In this webinar, you will learn what needs to be done to properly leverage EDA/Interface A in your manufacturing operations, and why these steps are essential to successfully achieving your smart manufacturing goals. This webinar is the first in a two-part series.
