Flex Apps are the first suite of autonomous scheduling applications available for wafer fabs. Conventional heuristic schedulers no longer have the capability to deal with the enormous complexity of a modern fab. Flex Apps have been built in collaboration with cutting-edge fabs to answer all the requirements of today’s chipmakers.
Organize WIP at a toolset level to optimize cycle time, enhance batching efficiency, and maximize throughput while eliminating timelink violations. Unlike legacy solutions that rely on heuristic rules, Flex Local eliminates the necessity for time-consuming manual intervention and tuning. This cutting-edge technology not only elevates fab KPIs but also streamlines workflows, helping to alleviate workload from critical engineering resources.
Streamline production, minimize idle time, and boost throughput with our bottleneck avoidance optimizer. Flex Global prioritizes clear pathways, manages timelinks, and ensures efficient changeovers. The user-friendly interface provides planners with the tools they need to make proactive daily decisions that help to elevate manufacturing efficiency.
Our production planner bridges ERP demand and shop floor execution with AI-driven modeling that optimizes daily wafer starts and production targets, improving capacity and on-time delivery. It factors in dynamic constraints like recipe enablement and timelinks, while identifying and prioritizing critical actions, such as recipe qualifications and tool recoveries, to ensure factory commitments are met consistently.
Runway empowers manufacturing specialists by placing the fab in the palm of their hands. All the information necessary for carrying out day-to-day tasks is packaged into a functional, modern, and intuitive user interface. Scan and troubleshoot lots, identify changeovers, and monitor tool downs, all on a portable device.
Maintaining high production performance in a semiconductor fab is extremely challenging. Flexciton developed Autonomous Scheduling Technology (AST) to empower semiconductor manufacturers to consistently achieve remarkable production results.
