Engineering planning illustration for a traceable probe card storage system

Controlled environment, RFID and factory interfaces

Traceable Probe Card Storage System

The system manages probe card identity, environment, location, state and movement history in one flow. RFID and WMS/EAP/MES connect receipt, issue, return and inventory, with manual, AMR, robot or OHT handoff configured for the site layout.

Category planning visual. Bin, cabinet, handoff and facility structure are designed for the site.

Equipment and engineering solution

Applications

Designed for the following probe card manufacturing, test and maintenance tasks.

High-value card custody

Control environment and retain location, issue, return and exception history.

Test and cleaning handoff

Relate reinspection release, storage state and the next process task.

Automated factory handoff

Define task and state loops with WMS/EAP/MES and AMR/OHT/robot systems.

WORKFLOW

Workflow

01

Receive and bind identity

Read or bind RFID and verify card, state, clean/test result and target location.

02

Controlled storage

Execute environment, access, location and handoff interlocks and record the outcome.

03

Task-driven issue

Receive WMS/EAP/MES or manual tasks and complete retrieval and downstream handoff.

04

Return and audit

Write back state, location, exception and operation history for inventory and traceability.

FAT / SAT

Project delivery

01

Sample evaluation

Confirm the object, interfaces, current state, failure modes and available validation samples.

02

Technical agreement

Define configuration, measurement method, limits, takt, data interfaces and responsibilities.

03

FAT

Verify functions, repeatability, reporting and exception handling with agreed samples.

04

SAT

Complete site integration, training, upstream/downstream interfaces and issue closure.

CONFIGURATION

Configuration and acceptance

System configuration, optional items and acceptance conditions are summarized below.

Configuration

Nitrogen, ESD, RFID, capacity and task time are set for the card and site conditions.

System scope

RFID, WMS/EAP/MES and manual or automated handoff use one set of states and history.

Acceptance

Interface communication, exception recovery, environmental alarms and physical material flow are verified in FAT/SAT.

Share the card, interfaces and target
