This paper proposes an innovative factory planning methodology to achieve the objectives that were defined by Flexitallic for the future expansion of the Thermiculite production line. The concepts under investigation extend to the analysis of flow benefits and restrictions considering product features and demands addressed in a proposed Batch/Flow Comparative Matrix. Furthermore, this paper introduces the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) concept to support the manufacturing line design using a mechanism of incorporating commercial awareness in all stages of the product deployment. The original QFD ensures process planning by bringing parts deployment into parts characteristics through the House of Quality. This study renews the original QFD by developing the Strategic Alignment of Quality Function Deployment (SAQFD) to achieve proactive management of Houses III and House IV. The case study demonstrates the utilization and applicability of the proposed methodologies, and demonstrates their importance during the design of a high volume production line.

Abstract This paper introduces a high volume and fast turnaround TEM sample preparation method and requirements for a 300 mm inline DualBeam (FIB/SEM) system with “hands-off” full automation. It requires a factory automation system, robust automated recipes, and an ex-situ TEM lamella liftout system. It describes the recipe structure and TEM lamella lift out procedures. The focus is on fully automated TEM sample preparation for process monitoring in manufacturing line. Two successful examples are described to demonstrate the benefit of this method. The first one is TEM sample for CA profile at M1 level. The second is TEM sample for poly crystalline (PC) line profile at post-etch.

Area Optimization

Driven by the company vision to become a high-volume manufacturing (HVM), increasing throughput in the manufacturing line is critical to meeting market demands. The ever-growing demand for integrated circuits in part requires additional capital investment to purchase new equipment such as die bonders to support the new requirement. Making the best of existing resources is often the most common approach to deal with this challenge. Defining the correct method and making the most of the secondary parameters necessary to increase the bonding speed by means of a creative analysis that made this article interesting. The objective of this project is to boost productivity by maximizing UPH to improve the epoxy writing process at Attach, which is a bottleneck area. Optimization of the dispensing sequence and the dispensing direction to improve and speed up the epoxy dispensing process unit per hour.

A systematic study has been made of the effects of various heat treatments on the microstructures of several experimental high volume fraction γ’ precipitation hardened nickel-base alloys, after doping with ∼2 w/o Hf so as to improve the stress rupture life and ductility. The most significant microstructural chan§e brought about by prolonged aging at temperatures in the range 1600°-1900°F was the decoration of grain boundaries with precipitate particles.Precipitation along the grain boundaries was first detected by optical microscopy, but it was necessary to use the scanning electron microscope to reveal the details of the precipitate morphology. Figure 1(a) shows the grain boundary precipitates in relief, after partial dissolution of the surrounding γ + γ’ matrix.
