The challenge
In semiconductor manufacturing, recipes define how each tool processes each product. Keeping more than 20,000 recipes up to date is repetitive, high-stakes work: every change has to be right, and every hour an engineer spends on updates is an hour not spent improving the process.
What we changed
We automated manufacturing recipe updates, so changes that engineers used to make by hand are applied consistently across the full recipe set.
The result
- About US$200,000 saved.
- Roughly 1,200 engineering hours returned to higher-value work.
- Consistent updates across 20,000+ recipes, with less room for manual error.
