Magagement method of consumables

Abstract

The invention provides a management method of consumables, which may decrease a custody location of the manufacturer by storing stocks of consumables to a user and by which the user may always get the consumables. The invention provides a management method of consumables arranged on a process device, comprising the following processes: a vending machine set process of setting vending machines for users using the consumables; a consumables intake process of taking the consumables in the vending machines by the manufacturer who produces the consumables; a purchase information transmission process of transmitting purchase information from the vending machines to the manufacturer when the user purchases consumables from the vending machines; a bill sending process of sending bills to the user by the manufacturer according to the purchase information transmitted by the purchase information transmission process; and a consumables supplement process of supplementing consumables to the vending machines by the manufacturer according to the purchase information transmitted by the purchase information transmission process.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a management method for managing consumables such as cutting tools. Background technique [0002] On the surface of the semiconductor wafer, a plurality of devices such as IC (Integrated Circuit: Integrated Circuit) and LSI (Large Scale Integration: Large Scale Integration) are formed by dividing predetermined lines (intervals). A cutting device (cutting device) of a cutting tool is divided into individual devices and used in electrical equipment such as a mobile phone and a personal computer. [0003] The cutting device includes at least a chuck table holding a workpiece such as a wafer, and a cutting member having a cutting tool for cutting the workpiece held on the chuck table. [0004] The cutting tool mounted on the cutting device is a consumable product, and needs to be replaced with a new cutting tool when chipping or a predetermined amount of wear of the cutting edge is detected by the tool sensor. Since it is...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] On the one hand, manufacturers of consumables such as cutting tools must promptly deliver orders from users, so they need to have a large amount of inventory, and must ensure a relatively large storage space, which is not economical.

[0006] On the other hand, if the user wants to keep inventory to a minimum, the delay in delivery may cause the production line to be interrupted

In addition, there is a problem that the user purchases consumables manufactured by other companies whose quality cannot be guaranteed, which is not pure consumables, causing trouble.
