FabTime's mission is to help the people who run fabs improve cycle time and manufacturing performance by:
- Letting them configure their own charts, so that they don’t have to go back to IT every time they want a different piece of data.
- Including them in a community of people around the world who are all working to drive better fab operations.
FabTime® is a web-based dashboard that works by taking a continuous feed of operational transactions from the factory execution system (MES) and processing these transactions real-time for storage in a database. Outputs (including charts and tables) can be viewed using a standard web browser across a corporate Intranet. FabTime® is designed to give people who run wafer fabs quick, easy access to the data they need to drive improvements.
While users can quickly start with a few key charts, the software includes more than 150 pre-configured charts demonstrating critical fab performance measures. Users can begin with default settings but can filter data by various attributes and drill-down for more detailed information.
FabTime’s web-based interface minimizes installation and training costs, and its comprehensive security model enables controlled system access for a wide factory audience. FabTime® also includes the documentation, help, and customer support that you would expect from a commercial system.
