700230, 700229, 700112, 700114, 700121, 19881001, 19881002, 19881003, 414935
Abstract:
In a first aspect, a computer program product is provided. The computer program product includes a medium readable by a computer. The computer readable medium has computer program code adapted to (1) create a band map that indicates an expected status of one or more positions along a band of a continuously moving conveyor system, each position adapted to receive a carrier support adapted to transport at least one substrate carrier around an electronic device manufacturing facility; (2) monitor status of the one or more positions included in the continuously moving conveyor system; and (3) control operation of the continuously moving conveyor system based on the status of the one or more positions. Numerous other aspects are provided.

US Patent:
7522969, Apr 21, 2009
Filed:
Aug 14, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/838284
Inventors:
David C. Duffin - Sandy UT, US
Daniel R. Jessop - Eagle Mountain UT, US
Michael Teferra - Los Gatos CA, US
Amitabh Puri - San Jose CA, US
Glade L. Warner - Sandy UT, US
Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
G06F 19/00
B65H 1/00
US Classification:
700112, 700101, 700115, 700121, 700228, 41422201
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for managing movement of small lots between processing tools within an electronic device manufacturing facility. In some embodiments, a number of priority lots to be processed is determined and an equivalent number of carrier storage locations are reserved at a substrate loading station of a processing tool. The number of reserved carrier storage locations are made available either by processing and advancing occupying non-priority lots and/or moving unprocessed occupying non-priority lots from the substrate loading station. Priority lots are then transferred to the reserved carrier storage locations. Other embodiments are provided.
