Enabling smart manufacturing in semiconductor fabs using predictive design and process insights
Digital twin for semiconductor manufacturing
Siemens, a leader in digital twin technology, offers the Calibre Fab Insights platform to help semiconductor manufacturers meet their business and sustainability goals today and into the future.
Building a digital twin for semiconductor fabs
The goal of smart manufacturing using a digital twin approach is accelerate the transfer between products and production, and also back from production to product. With a digital twin, fabs can characterize every piece of equipment in the fab. Making use of all the data a fab generates will narrow the iterative efforts between design and production and allow for quick virtual prototyping and development of new manufacturing processes. In a digital twin implementation, the use of data for predictive insights accelerates the design, optimization and realization of both the product and the production of semiconductors. A digital twin implementation allows for realistic simulations and validation of product, machines, lines, and complete fabs and provides the foundation for flexible and efficient manufacturing.
Using a digital twin with Calibre Fab Insights provides unique business value: new products start production sooner, yield ramp is faster and yield entitlement is higher.
