Following an introduction of ATS defined types and procedures, this chapter applies factors to various crossgenerational production operation management literature as mentioned earlier. Definition and types of automation transportation systems Definition and types of automation transportation systemsAutomation refers to Groover [2] “the application of mechanical, electronic and puterized systems to control production technology.” New technologies relevant to production automation include partially automated machine tools, automated assembly equipment, industrial robots, automated material handling and storage systems, automated quality control inspection systems, and support for puter process control puter system manufacturing activities. The crossgeneration ATS is superior to the traditional method in terms of its use to integrate the application of new technology systems with the ring of manufacturing production strategy, explaining why material and information flow design in a factory can be more plete.The study Stevenson and Sum [3] adopts a production operations management perspective, primarily through use of production services and process capability to link machine operations through automatic sensors and control devices rather than through human labor. Machines that incorporate automatic sensors and control devices are converted into standardized and automated operations, for used in scaling up production to mass production levels and reducing production costs. The crossgeneration ATS advantages of standardization work experience, as accumulated by each generation of the system, can be used in the next generation. Implementing of automation transportation systemsIndustry characteristics, technical patterns, and product flow affect ATS implementation. ATS bines productionoriented, processoriented, and continuous improvements of manufacturing processes to maintain a high yield and enhance total production [4]. Therefore, ATS implementation flow meets operational objectives, based on flexible production planning [5]. In addition to proposing views regarding stages and elements during implementation, numerous scholars and experts have discussed general procedures [6]. Crossgeneration ATS is characterized by its integration of flexible design and planning procedures, allowing it to achieve a dynamic production manufacturing planning strategy. A personnel of a production unit is involved in practice, according to the production of strategic objectives, in order to evaluate the design results. From the perspective of manufacturing mechanization and automation assembly [2], automation import procedures consist of the following five steps: design the automated assembly, classify automated assembly system types, develop the supply device architecture, analyze the workstation assembly machines, and analyze the single workstation assembly Machine.This study presents an automated material handing system for a 300mm semiconductor fab [7]. The proposed system is based on a simulationbased [8] design concept based on the following stages: construct the manufacturing model, perform profile analysis, design the architectural automated material handling system (AMHS), design an elaborate physical AMHS, design an elaborate behavioral AMHS, construct the AMHS model, evaluate the proposed model, and implement the final design. Generation evolution→ application of automation transportation system in manufacturing processes Production is a conversion process [2], in which the various materials are converted into a marketable product. The final product is thus a bination of various kinds of labor, machinery, tools, and energy. This conversion process typically includes a series of procedures, each one beginning with the initial raw material, followed by its conversion into the desired end state. Each procedure thus is a part of the “production process.” The manufacturing process must also ply with factory manufacturing operations, which are focused. In a highly petitive manufacturing strategy, numerous procedures prise the entire manufacturing process. The manufacturing practice emphasizes flexibility in automated manufacturing systems and focuses mainly on minimizing lead time and reducing workinprocess (WIP) inventory. Crossgeneration ATS is more flexible than the overall production efficiency by roughly 10 %.Frequently associated with the initial factory [9], the production efficiency of TFTLCD manufacturers during the mass production stage is closely related to the quality of facility layout planning. The production process, ., mainly central nervous ATS equipment planning, effectively links reactions in various production and performance indicators. Therefore, how to plan a more efficient factory layout and design more efficient systems most effectively utilizes limited space to enhance production performance. Crossgeneration ATS allows for the cumulative experience of each generation layout design, which can effectively save a significant amount more than the initial cost by around 10 %.Manufacturing processes and equipment in the TFTLCD panel industry are similar to those in the semiconductor industry [10], with the basic production replacement material from wafer to the glass substrate as the main difference between the two industries. Early development of the TFTLCD industry has been such that glass substrate size is equivalent to wafer size, in which the process equipment in the production unit at the LCD factory of IBM [11]. When constructing its LCD factory, IBM adopted the same concept to design the factory layout and ATS. The crossgeneration ATS has planning and design advantage that is patible with the future trend of large LCDs.The response of TFTLCD manufact
