Pump Management Program

For Semiconductor Fab and other manufacturing companies with more than 200 pumps who want to take the guess work out of vacuum system related downtime and/or failures, and keep their line technicians focused on maximum tool productivity, the FMG Pump Management Program provides an on-site technician and software supported system that tracks, schedules preventative maintenance and monitors the progress of pump status as it proceeds through each department.

Unlike in house maintenance efforts, our on-site technician(s) custom software group assist in managing pump inventory, and reduce maintenance costs dramatically through inventory control monitoring and action call control observation embedded software – customized to accommodate individual needs.

The Pump Management Program even has the ability to log pertinent pump information and provide detailed reports on its service call activities. And, since 1987, FMG has been in the field, servicing thousands of pumps for major semiconductor players.

What if you’re facing a problem you haven’t even considered? It’s never too late to learn why vacuum failures may often be more than just the pump. Our on-site Pump Management Program offers you the following:
