Use-Case: Semiconductor Manufacturer
How FireVisor helps to save 100,000 man hours per machine for a large wafer manufacturer
Semiconductor manufacturing is a huge market and one of the most competitive in the industry.
Challenges In The Semiconductor Industry
Constant need for innovation
Semiconductor manufacturers need to continuously innovate to stay relevant/competitive as products have very short life cycles.
High cost of poor quality
With a huge market like the semiconductor industry; the stakes are high, and the margin for error is low. Costs of product recall and order replacements can be devastating to profits and brand image.
Speed is key
As more customers demand products at speed. Semiconductor manufacturers must fully automate production to stay ahead of the competition.
High manpower cost
Specialized tech factories running in Singapore have a very high manpower cost of manual defect detection. Moreover, current manual detection is susceptible to tiredness, time of day, external conditions etc.
