A layer alongside, not a replacement
Outpost adds connectivity and visibility next to the systems you run today. Nothing is ripped out, and nothing needs to be migrated before you see value.
Equipment automation · Semiconductor manufacturing
Connect every tool. Change nothing that runs.
Outpost links production equipment to the systems that run your floor. It installs beside your MES, on your own server, and leaves every running interface exactly as it is.
What stays the same
Built to sit beside what you already trust.
01 · Your MES stays
02 · Your line keeps running
Production is never the test bench
New interfaces are built and proven against a simulator of the tool first. Cut-over is a small, reversible step, taken when you choose to take it.
03 · Your server, your data
Runs inside your fab
Outpost is designed as a single program on your own hardware, with no cloud service in the path and no data leaving the site.
How we work
Fixed-scope engineering, delivered with Outpost.
You bring a tool that needs to talk to your factory. We scope it, build it, prove it against a simulator of that tool, and hand it over running.
- Scope
We look at the tool, its interface and what your host systems need from it, then fix a price.
- Simulate
We model the tool's behaviour so the interface can be built and tested without touching production.
- Deliver
The interface goes live on your server. You own the delivered interface, its source and your site configuration.
Experience
Decades on the fab floor.
Abinition's engineers have automated semiconductor equipment for more than twenty years, across process tools, test cells and the hosts that run them. Outpost is that experience packaged so it can be installed.
