Trend Grouping Solution for Semiconductor Backend Manufacturing

In semiconductor backend manufacturing, monitoring equipment performance and operator efficiency is crucial for maintaining production stability and optimizing yield. However, traditional Statistical Process Control (SPC) charts primarily focus on product quality and often fail to capture equipment deviations or shift-based variations.

To overcome this limitation, manufacturers need a more efficient way to group and analyze production data. This Work Smarter video demonstrates how camLine’s Trend Grouping Plug-in (TGP) enables faster root cause analysis and problem-solving using LineWorks SPACE Chart Plug-ins, making it easier to identify trends based on shifts, time, and equipment performance.

Challenges Semiconductor Backend Manufacturers Face in Analyzing Production Data

Production managers and process engineers require deep, actionable insights to quickly detect process inefficiencies and equipment anomalies. However, traditional SPC tools lack flexibility, making it difficult to analyze data by shift patterns, time periods, or machine performance. This lack of customized data grouping slows down root cause analysis and delays corrective actions.

Limited Data Visibility:

Traditional SPC charts display only measured data but lack access to logistics and material traceability.
Slow Root Cause Identification:

Without proper data grouping, engineers must manually sort through vast datasets, delaying corrective actions.
Fragmented Data Sources:

Production data is often scattered across multiple systems, such as equipment logs, test reports, and operator records, leading to inconsistencies and inefficiencies.

Difficulty in Comparing Trends Over Time:

Manufacturers struggle to track historical performance and detect gradual process shifts without efficient trend visualization tools.
Complex Data Analysis Tools:

Many existing solutions require technical expertise to configure and interpret data, making it challenging for engineers to perform real-time analysis without IT support.
