SMART MANUFACTURING STANDARDS

The SEMI Standards Program brings together experts to exchange ideas and work towards developing globally accepted technical standards.

Starting from the SECS (SEMI Equipment Communications Standard) and GEM (Generic Model for Communications and Control of Manufacturing Equipment) standards, and more recently with Equipment Data Acquisition standards, the SEMI Standards Program has served as the platform for development of advanced automation standards enabling Smart Manufacturing across the microelectronics industry.

Today, the Information & Control and Automation Technology Global Technical Committees continue to develop new Standards, examining topics such as energy conservation, traceability, automation of back-end processing, and manufacturing equipment communication interfaces for printed circuit boards and related industries.
