According to the method of the invention comprises the following steps: a) of the product to determine a single process instruction sequence, respectively select certain processing equipment through the sequence of processing steps and completed by the processing equipment, b) according to the processing steps to complete processing equipment, to determine the possible configurations, and determine the configuration the related processing equipment in the processing time of products with a single, c) to provide processing mode in the processing equipment in a state of information, d) by the state information processing module and processing equipment may in accordance with the processing steps to complete the configuration, determined in accordance with the processing module processing equipment configuration and feasible state the related processing equipment in the processing time of products with a single. A method for controlling a plurality of machining equipment each having a plurality of processing modules for producing at least one product. According to the method of the invention comprises the following steps: to determine a single product in the process of instruction sequence, choose certain processing equipment through the sequence of processing steps and completed by the processing equipment, and according to the processing steps to complete the configuration of processing equipment can be determined, and determine the relevant configuration in the processing equipment of processed products with a single time, the processing mode in the processing equipment in a state by state information, information processing module and processing equipment may in accordance with the processing steps to complete the configuration, determined in accordance with the processing module processing equipment state feasible configuration and shape related in the processing of equipment in processing time of products with a single structure, taking feasible configuration processing equipment thus obtained and a single configuration in the relevant processing equipment in processing of products As a basis, in an optimization algorithm, the order of the single process instructions to be completed on a single processing device is determined. In the first method of the invention, such information is obtained, i.e., which single process instructions can be simultaneously implemented by a processing device. In the production process is divided into single target process of second kinds of the method of the invention, the product, the target is realized by one or more single instruction process, this process is also provided with a target, the target can be realized by selecting or to make one or more of a single processing equipment, more than a single process the instruction or by selecting at least two different processing equipment to achieve.
【技术实现步骤摘要】
本专利技术涉及一种,以进行生产控制或生产计划,具体说用于生产集成半导体产品的生产控制/生产计划。现代工业生产通常以高度自动化为特征。尤其在半导体工业中,为能够具有国际竞争能力高度自动化更是绝对必要。在生产过程中产品经过一系列加工步骤,这些加工步骤由不同的加工设备在待加工产品上自动进行。例如在生产集成半导体过程中,产品要经过多达600个步骤,其中相当大一部分可在一干净的室内环境中用高度专业化的加工设备进行。为此常常许多个同样的加工设备集中到一个加工区(“隔间(Bay)”)。现代加工设备(如所谓的“簇工具(Cluster Tools)”)常具有多个对待加工产品进行特有加工的模件。因此可以这样选择模件,使得模件只在各自不同的加工步骤中能够实施。然后待加工产品必须以规定顺序经过至少一部分模件,以便获得通过当前加工设备预定的加工。但加工设备的模件也可以这样选择,使得至少一部分模件能够进行各同样的步骤。这有一个好处,即在一个模件失灵时可以用相应的模件替换该模件,而不会使整个加工设备失灵。通过加工设备的这种模块化构造使得可以不太高的成本用一个加工设备加工多种不同产品。这提高了生产的灵活性从而提高了生产的经济合理性。这种自动化生产的成本大部分受到这样一个问题的影响,即如何能出色地有效地控制和计划生产过程。为了控制某一产品的整个生产过程,首先为每个产品准备一个工作计划。在该工作计划中限定许多个过程目标,其中每个过程目标通过一个或几个单过程指令(EPA,EinzelprozeBanweisung)。一个单过程指令通常指出要用来加工产品的加工设备,此外还包括由加工设备做完 ...
