AI has been hailed as a game-changer for semiconductor manufacturing, with promises of yield optimization, predictive maintenance, and accelerated innovation. Yet, despite massive investments, nearly 90% of AI pilots fail to transition into full-scale production. Why? More importantly, how can companies ensure success? Many AI projects stall after the proof-of-concept (PoC) … [Read more...] about Scaling AI in semiconductor manufacturing: Why most pilots fail and how to succeed

Visual data science in action: Driving yield optimization with Spotfire
In semiconductor manufacturing, even a fraction of a percent increase in yield can translate into millions of dollars in savings. With the complexity of wafer fabrication, photolithography, etching, and testing—manufacturers must navigate vast data landscapes to identify process inefficiencies, detect defects early, and optimize performance. Traditional tools often fall short, … [Read more...] about Visual data science in action: Driving yield optimization with Spotfire
From data chaos to clarity: How Hemlock improved operations with Spotfire
Key takeaways Turning data overload into opportunity Hemlock Semiconductor (HSC)—the largest U.S. producer of hyper-pure polysilicon—offers a compelling data visualization success story, using Spotfire® visual data science to turn massive, messy data into smart, sustainable decision-making. Before its digital transformation, HSC was drowning in data. Every function, … [Read more...] about From data chaos to clarity: How Hemlock improved operations with Spotfire
Beyond the dashboard: How Spotfire democratizes data science for semiconductor teams
What if semiconductor process engineers, quality managers, and even R&D teams could unlock the same insights as data scientists—without writing a single line of code? In many semiconductor companies, advanced analytics are often confined to small data science teams, creating bottlenecks that slow decision-making and limit innovation. Innovation is no longer about individual … [Read more...] about Beyond the dashboard: How Spotfire democratizes data science for semiconductor teams
From data chaos to clarity: How Spotfire harmonizes semiconductor data for actionable insights
In semiconductor manufacturing, data is everywhere—but insights often feel out of reach. Every step of semiconductor production generates massive amounts of data: device metrology, equipment events, process trace data, defect reports, and more. The challenge? These datasets exist in different formats across disconnected systems, leading to data silos, slow analysis, and … [Read more...] about From data chaos to clarity: How Spotfire harmonizes semiconductor data for actionable insights
