Abstract:
A method of detecting failure of manufacturing apparatuses has: identifying a low-yield-period apparatus having a significantly lower yield period compared with other manufacturing apparatus and the significantly lower yield period by comparing yields of a plurality of manufacturing apparatuses used in parallel in a specific manufacturing process for each time period when the manufacturing apparatuses were used; identifying a downward-tendency apparatus having a significant downward tendency in yield compared with the other manufacturing apparatus by comparing recent yield trends of the plurality of manufacturing apparatuses; and issuing multi-level warnings to the low-yield-period apparatus and the downward-tendency apparatus.
