Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of packaging substrate technology, and more specifically to a method and system for preventing mistakes with a chemical solution. Background Technology

[0002] In the electronics manufacturing industry, such as packaging substrates, the stable operation of production equipment (e.g., electroplating, cleaning, etching equipment) depends on the precise replenishment of various chemical solutions. In existing technologies, the solution addition process is typically as follows: operators retrieve the solution from the warehouse to the production line (line-side), visually compare the solution label with the equipment requirements, and then manually add the solution to the corresponding storage tank. After addition, the time, type of solution, and amount added must be manually recorded on paper or in a spreadsheet. However, this existing technology has the following significant drawbacks: (1) High dependence on manual labor and prone to errors: From material requisition to verification, addition and recording, the whole process depends on manual operation, which poses a risk of adding the wrong medicine due to fatigue or negligence, which may cause safety accidents and lead to product yield loss. (2) Inaccurate addition: Manual addition cannot accurately control the dosage, which may lead to fluctuations in the concentration of the drug and affect the stability of the process; (3) Low recording efficiency and prone to errors and omissions: Manual recording is delayed, prone to errors or omissions, and has poor data reliability, making it difficult to effectively trace and manage material costs in a refined manner.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0021] It should be understood that the sequence number of each step in the embodiment does not imply the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of this application.

[0022] Example 1 This application provides a method and system for preventing errors using chemical solutions, and also provides an application of this method in the scenario of adding additives in an electroplating production line for packaging substrates. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The method in this embodiment includes: S1, configure the storage slot's unique identification code as the first identification code, configure the medicine bucket's unique identification code as the second identification code, and establish the association between the first identification code and the second identification code.

[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, each electroplating tank has a unique QR code label (as unique identification code 1, corresponding to the first identification code X) affixed next to the additive replenishment port (i.e., storage tank); each batch of additive original container (i.e. chemical container) has a unique QR code label containing the product model and batch (as unique identification code 2, corresponding to the second identification code Y); through the configuration interface of the industrial computer, the first identification code X of all electroplating tanks on the production line is bound to the second identification code Y of the chemical container of the additives that are allowed to be added. For example, the first identification code X of "Copper Plating Tank No. 1" is associated with the second identification code Y of "Copper Plating Additive Type A" and stored in the database.

[0024] S2, the first identification code of the storage slot and the second identification code of the medicine bucket are scanned by the scanning device to verify whether the association between the two is correct.

[0025] In this embodiment, the scanning device scans the first identification code X of the storage slot and the second identification code Y of the medicine bucket in sequence, and verifies the association between the first identification code X and the second identification code Y.

[0026] S3. If the verification passes, the medicine will be drawn from the medicine tank into the corresponding storage tank.

[0027] In this embodiment, if the verification passes, the medicine is pumped from the medicine tank into the storage tank by a pneumatic pump according to the preset addition time; the preset addition time in this embodiment is set based on the pneumatic pump running time corresponding to the target addition amount.

[0028] S4. If the verification fails, an alarm will be triggered and the medicine addition process will be blocked.

[0029] In this embodiment, if the verification fails, an alarm is triggered by an audio-visual prompt via a barcode scanning device.

[0030] Another aspect of the present invention provides a chemical error-proofing system, applied in the process of adding additives in an electroplating production line for packaging substrates, comprising: The information configuration module is used to configure the unique identification code of the storage slot as the first identification code, configure the unique identification code of the medicine bucket as the second identification code, and establish the association between the first identification code and the second identification code; The barcode verification module is used to scan the first identification code of the storage slot and the second identification code of the medicine bucket respectively through the barcode scanning device to verify whether the association between the two is correct. The add module is used to draw the medicine from the medicine tank into the corresponding storage tank if the verification passes. The alarm module is used to trigger an alarm and block the medicine addition process if the verification fails.

[0031] In this embodiment, a specific operation process is as follows: The operator needs to replenish the copper plating tank No. 1 with additives. The operator first scans the unique QR code next to the copper plating tank with a handheld barcode scanner (obtaining the first identification code X); then, the operator scans the unique QR code on the "Copper Plating Additive Type A" solution bucket (obtaining the second identification code Y); the operator clicks the "Confirm Addition" button on the barcode scanner, and the barcode scanner sends the first identification code X and the second identification code Y information to the server program in the industrial tablet computer; the server program immediately queries the database to determine whether "Copper Plating Tank No. 1" allows the addition of "Copper Plating Additive Type A". The query result is "Allowed", and the verification is successful; the server issues a start command for the pneumatic pump, and the preset time for this addition is 30 seconds; then, the pneumatic pump connected between the "Copper Plating Additive Type A" solution bucket and the copper plating tank No. 1 starts working, pumping the copper plating additive Type A from the solution bucket into the copper plating tank No. 1. After 30 seconds, the pneumatic pump stops working. After the addition is completed, the server program automatically records a log in the database, which includes: operator ID, start time (pump start time), end time (pump stop time), first identification code X (copper plating tank No. 1), second identification code Y (copper plating additive type A-batch 123), and status "success".

[0032] In summary, this embodiment provides a method for preventing errors in adding medicine, which can solve the problems of easy errors in medicine addition, inaccurate dosage, low recording efficiency and difficulty in traceability in the prior art.

[0033] Example 2 This application provides a system for preventing errors with a chemical solution. This system is basically the same as the system in Embodiment 1, except that: This embodiment of the solution-based error prevention system also includes a display module, such as... Figure 2 As shown, operators can view added records on the monitor for traceability and cost management.

[0034] It should be noted that, depending on the implementation needs, the various steps described in this application can be broken down into more steps, or two or more steps or parts of the steps can be combined into new steps to achieve the purpose of this invention.

[0035] Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
