Automation Software for LED

Applied automation software helps LED customers grow their operations and their revenue by allowing them to track and trace materials while improving equipment utilization and product quality. Applied’s vast experience with Advanced Process Control (APC) provides the perfect foundation for improving epitaxial, scanner and other processes. With more than 500 installations in manufacturing facilities worldwide, Applied automation software is a proven solution for enabling production growth. Our LED-focused solutions protect initial software investments, lower total cost of ownership and can help boost the bottom line.

Solutions

Applied automation software solutions are specifically designed to give LED manufacturers a 360-degree view of operations and granular control of processes by:

• Providing continuous monitoring of throughput and individual components, including equipment configurations, and delivering real-time notification when process and equipment changes occur
• Using automated notifications to allow dynamic preventative maintenance based on defined process windows
• Enabling Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) workflows to be combined with equipment engineering systems (EES) strategies to validate and perform critical setup for maximum control over the Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition process as it relates to final product
• Speeding root-cause analysis of equipment sensors from scrap or excursion events
• Preventing future scrap and excursion events through fault models, notification and interdiction schemes
• Avoiding unscheduled downtime through data mining of equipment sensor data

 Benefits

• Boost revenue by improving high-margin bin yields and overall throughput
• Reduce costs by minimizing scrap and dynamically managing maintenance activities
• Improve manufacturing quality through automation and integration on a single platform
• Scale manufacturing quickly and easily to meet demand
