Evisor
-
Evisor is a management system to control and watch EI (Equipment Interface) programs which communicate with, operate and control equipment in semiconductor and FPD industry in real-time.
- Multi-user monitoring using ‘Push technology’ to minimized network load
- Platform Independent
- Web-based daily work sheet and statistic report
- Easy and fast failure detection and troubleshooting
The Benefits
Before
- Geographically and systematically distributed factory operating system
- Lack of Yield Management
- Impossible factory automation due to a lack of systems in China
After
- Successful support of fast Ramp-up through provision of localized system functions including Line worker education and site support
- Easy and low-cost maintenance based on rule-based software design
- Implementation of factory automation system on time
- Removal of bottleneck by real-time scheduler
- Unmanned production system through standard specs and online management of equipment
