Applied Materials is the industry leader in providing manufacturing efficiency solutions for all Flat Panel Display (FPD) manufacturers including film transistor/liquid crystal display (TFT/LCD), Module, CF, PDP and OLED. FPD manufacturers with products ranging from the smallest OLED's to the largest High Density television displays are continually driven to shrink cycle time, synchronize tightly with their supply chain, and meet 6 sigma quality expectations. Dependable on-time delivery and high quality standards are keys to success. Applied Materials solutions provide unique competitive advantage to premier FPD plants around the globe giving them the agility to manage continuous new product introductions and an ever-increasing product mix. Applied Materials offers an open integrated MES solution that is specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of FPD manufacturers at the array, cell or module production level. Applied Materials is the leader in supplying hardware neutral Material Control Systems (MCS) to the Flat Panel Display industry. As the industry evolves and high end glass panels continue to increase in size, Applied Materials solutions including MCS and Automation Management are becoming imperative for next-generation plants to provide the competitive edge in leading the industry forward. Applied Materials also offers solutions that help FPD manufacturing close the automation loop with advanced process control and make intelligent decisions around controlling workflow by utilizing up-to-the-minute production data from multiple sources. |
