SecsToHost.Net

SECS/GEM Driver for Equipment Manufacturer

Solution Overview

SecsToHost.Net is a turnkey SECS/GEM driver that has the ability to quickly transform your equipment controller into a fully GEM compliant machine. It is a powerful and user-friendly solution that includes a robust modelling tool and a comprehensive library of function calls, allowing for automatic handling of most GEM messages. This feature reduces the time needed to create a fully functional equipment interface. Typically, this product is used in new projects where the equipment manufacturer wants to add GEM capabilities to their machine.

For software engineers looking to quickly develop and implement communication interfaces on manufacturing equipment, the SecsToHost.Net software development toolkit (SDK) offers a variety of resources including libraries, sample applications, Model Builder, and Host SECS/GEM Simulator. The architecture of SecsToHost.Net can also be effortlessly expanded to support additional SEMI standards such as PV2, 300mm, and others.
