As Internet factory, factory will be equipped with 2 smart shelves, automatic tracking every batch of wafer storage and retrieval. Advanced machines and machines will record the data in the process of communication, to realize automatic machine optimization, dynamic adjust the priority at the same time, the operator will improve total productivity.
After two factories at full capacity production, infineon will reach about 3000 people in the forest employees. Infineon semiconductor skilled staff will help achieve "high income countries" in 2020 in Malaysia. Infineon Malaysia in the forest and malacca employees a total of about 10000 people, this makes infineon Malaysia electronics industry's biggest employer and one of the foreign direct investment, total investment of 12 billion ringgit.
