Client: One of the Leading Electronics Manufacturers in the Philippines
Industry: Semiconductor Manufacturing
A leading electronics manufacturer in the Philippines faced a major challenge—their Applied Materials P-5000 CVD SACVD system lacked SECS/GEM connectivity, preventing seamless integration with their factory automation system. Without real-time SECS/GEM Communication, they struggled with manual data collection, inefficient monitoring, and limited automation.
Einnosys provided the perfect solution: EIGEMBox, a plug-and-play SECS/GEM interface that enabled SECS/GEM protocol communication without modifying the legacy equipment. The implementation was smooth, allowing the client to establish real-time equipment monitoring, automated data collection, and seamless MES connectivity.
