Material Control System (MCS)

Name: Material Control System (MCS)
Brand: MFSG

The Material Control System (MCS) is a centralized software platform that manages and coordinates automated material handling operations across semiconductor manufacturing facilities. It provides unified control of material movement, transport requests, equipment status, and routing, enabling efficient and reliable material flow throughout the fab.

Key Features

AA disaster recovery system

Centralized AMHS Control

Transport Order Management

Real-Time Material Tracking

Multi-System Integration

Scalable Architecture

Data & Performance Monitoring

Flexible Configuration

Supports SEMI E30, E82, and E88 communication with AMHS equipment

Material Control System

The MCS can integrate with a wide range of AMHS equipment, including OHT, AMR, stockers, conveyors, load ports, and other material handling systems. It dynamically coordinates transport activities based on material destinations, equipment availability, system status, and predefined operational rules.

Key capabilities include transport order management, route planning, equipment dispatching, material tracking, traffic and congestion management, equipment status monitoring, alarm handling, and operational data management. The system can also support integration with higher-level MES/MCS host systems through industry-standard communication interfaces such as SECS/GEM, HSMS, TCP/IP, APIs, and other customer-defined protocols.

With centralized visibility and intelligent coordination of material handling resources, the MCS helps improve transport efficiency, equipment utilization, system availability, and overall fab automation performance, while providing operators with real-time monitoring and control of AMHS operations.
