TransSECS + MIStudio

SECS/GEM • GEM300 • Equipment & Host Integration

Industrial Automation, Now with Autonomous Intelligence.

Build reliable SECS/GEM and GEM300 equipment or host applications with TransSECS. Connect tools, PLCs, and factory systems; collect contextual data and run advanced analytics with MIStudio. Now, AI can engineer and refine the applications themselves.

Proven semiconductor integration

TransSECS: SECS/GEM & GEM300

Equipment-side interfaces, host applications, recipe management, events, alarms, data collection, and GEM300 automation for process tools, EFEMs, and material handling. Modernize existing equipment or integrate new tools without starting from scratch.

Autonomous Industrial Intelligence

Now AI Can Engineer Complete Industrial Applications.

Watch AI build, inspect, and refine real MIStudio applications—from natural-language instructions to working industrial logic and interfaces. Engineered, Not Generated.

From simple prompts to real applications

  • Complete SECS/GEM host applications, equipment communications, events, and alarms
  • Tool and OEM automation with SECS/GEM, GEM300, EFEMs, and material handling
  • Equipment connectivity and application logic across PLCs, OPC UA, databases, and factory systems
  • Industrial analytics and operator dashboards, including data exploration and process analysis
  • Rich interfaces and animated equipment simulations built and refined by AI

Self-Building Automation. Human-Maintainable by Design.

The output is an ordinary MIStudio application: standard components, inspectable logic, and screens engineers can edit by hand or with further AI instructions.

Demonstrated with Claude. Designed for your choice of AI via MCP. Locally hosted models are also under development.

Not another code generator

AI works like an engineer

  • Builds applications using MIStudio's existing visual tools and components
  • Inspects what it built and makes iterative changes
  • Leaves behind editable diagrams, logic, dashboards, and interfaces
  • Supports human review, testing, and maintenance

One platform, two ways to work: engineers can build manually, direct AI, or take over at any point.

Make semiconductor automation simple

TransSECS does more than implement SECS/GEM.

TransSECS is a powerful semiconductor automation framework for both equipment suppliers and factory integration teams. Rapidly add SECS/GEM and GEM300 capabilities to new or legacy equipment, or build complete host-side data collection, RMS, FDC, and equipment integration applications.

Whether you're integrating a process tool, PLC, EFEM, or factory system, TransSECS connects equipment to the broader manufacturing environment through technologies such as OPC UA, MQTT, AMQP, databases/SQL, REST, PLCs, Modbus, Siemens S7, Ethernet/IP, Sparkplug B, MCP, MES, cloud platforms, and more.

MIStudio adds the application layer: structured data collection, visual logic, scripting, dashboards, AI-ready context, and low-code application development from edge devices to cloud deployments.

Key outcomes

  • Add SECS/GEM and GEM300 capabilities to equipment faster.
  • Connect tools, PLCs, and factory systems without brittle custom glue code.
  • Modernize legacy equipment for AI, MES, UNS, and IoT architectures.
  • Prototype, deploy, and maintain semiconductor integrations faster.
  • Enable AI/ML with structured, contextualized manufacturing data.
  • Automatic Digital Twin creation for host/equipment testing

TransSECS + MIStudio

Move Beyond Monitoring with Real-time, Data-driven Control

All semiconductor manufacturers face the same integration, traceability, recipe management, and data challenges as the industry’s largest fabs, but often without the resources for large, complex software projects.

ErgoTech combines 25+ years of semiconductor automation expertise with practical software tools that make advanced factory intelligence achievable.

By pairing TransSECS for rapid equipment connectivity with MIStudio for DataOps, AI, and application development, manufacturers can modernize operations faster, without rip-and-replace projects or excessive engineering overhead.

Connected Data → Actionable Intelligence

TransSECS turns process tools into connected, data-ready systems.

MIStudio transforms that data into actionable intelligence through AI, analytics, visualization, and automation.

Together, they provide a practical path to advanced fab intelligence that is fast to deploy, scalable, and affordable.

Recipe and process intelligence

Move beyond monitoring into data-driven control

Collecting data is not the same as being able to use it. MIStudio and TransSECS help manufacturers enforce recipe consistency, validate operating context, capture tool history, and feed FDC, RMS, and AI applications with structured information.
