3. Agilent ICT and Automation
• Developed EFS in the early 1990s, which are STILL being
used today
• Partnered with Handler expertise (such as JOT and IPTE)
since late 1990s, with numerous worldwide installations,
especially in Europe
• All the handshake commands are included in the Testmain
• Resurface the Automation needs in 2010s, with a major
customer engagements
• Continue to examine the current automation needs

4. Automation Considerations for ICT
• Footprint requirement for better floor space utilization
• Equipment layout to cope with volume fluctuations
• System configurations (node counts, power supplies, controller, on board
programming, etc)
• Ergonomic display, keyboard, emergency switch, signal towers
• Board flow, load and unload positions, conveyors, buffers
• Connection to Board Handlers (component height, stoppers, scanners)
• Program debug, fixture fine tuning and change over time
• For inline operations, cycle time optimization for line balancing.
• Manufacturing trend
