Removing a Carrier#

This tutorial describes how to remove one of two carriers attached to a Material, while the other carrier stays attached and continues with the Material. Consider the Delamination Step at the SemiFG Flow.

Preconditions#

  • The SemiFG.01 material already has two carriers attached:
    • The SemiFG carrier, attached at the SemiFGLotCreation step.
    • The Frame, attached at the Lamination Step.
  • The SemiFG.01 material has reached the Delamination step.
  • A Material Carrier Context entry defines a Remove Operation for SemiFG Carriers at the Delamination Step.

  • The Carrier Material Verification Mode is set to At Track Out.

If the operator does not remove the SemiFG carrier from SemiFG.01 before it tracks out, the system prevents the Track-Out action and displays an error indicating that the operator must, first, remove the carrier.

Sequence of Steps#

1. Open the Delamination step#

Login to MES and proceed as follows:

  1. On the left side menu, select Business Data.
  2. On the Business Data panel, select Step.
