Description: Development and implementation of an automated cleaning system for carriers to improve consistency, reduce manual handling, and enhance contamination control within the cleanroom environment.

Scope

Design and implement an automated carrier cleaning solution (e.g., Automated air blow system)

Integrate carrier in/out handling using semi/fully automated mechanism (conveyor, robot arm, or indexing system)

Define and standardize cleaning process parameters (cycle time, chemical usage, drying method)

Perform system integration with existing production flow and material handling process

Conduct testing and validation (UAT) to ensure cleaning effectiveness and process stability

Data collection and analysis on cleaning performance, particle reduction, and throughput

Implement safety, ESD, and contamination control

Deliverables

Automated carrier cleaning system installed and operational

Reduction in manual cleaning activities and operator handling

Consistent cleaning performance with defined acceptance criteria (particle level / contamination level)

Improved cycle time and throughput versus manual cleaning

Standardized cleaning recipe and control parameters

Data tracking capability for cleaning cycles and performance (if system integrated)

Stretch Goals

Real-time monitoring dashboard for cleaning efficiency and machine status

Reduction of chemical consumption / water usage through optimization
