RFID Solutions as the Foundation of the Smart Fab – Why RFID Is Essential

Many fabs still rely on manual or paper-based processes – error-prone, slow, and lacking transparency. In semiconductor fabs, RFID-based identification and tracking solutions offer a powerful alternative:

  • Accurate identification of wafer carriers
  • Seamless integration into existing IT and production systems
  • Real-time transparency across the entire material flow
  • Increased efficiency and quality through digital traceability
