A tool that waits for a part costs more than the part.
GlobeRanger keeps a true record of reticles, carriers, chamber parts, and metrology equipment, including the condition each one is in. It runs at the edge, within deliberately segregated networks.
In a fab, the loss is never the asset.
A fab runs near full utilisation around the clock, and almost everything inside it is extremely valuable or extremely sensitive:
- Reticles and wafer carriers whose contents are worth more than the equipment moving them
- Chamber parts and metrology equipment held in small numbers, needed the minute a tool goes down
- Calibration equipment that has to be traceable to the hour
When one cannot be found, the cost is not the asset. It is the tool standing idle while somebody searches the bays, and the material in process when a decision was made based on an inaccurate record.
GlobeRanger reads the tags and barcodes those assets already carry and maintains a record of their location and condition. A carrier that moves outside its required humidity range or a reticle that experiences a shock raises an exception.
It runs at the edge, which matters in a fab more than almost anywhere. Process networks are segregated deliberately, and the record stays complete inside them.

Proven where the demands are the same.
Two operations with the same problem, in different buildings.
Manufacturing
Baker Hill Industries: precision parts, tracked through the process.
Baker Hill Industries runs GlobeRanger to track precision machined components in real time through manufacturing, for aerospace, defence, medical and commercial customers. What carries over to a fab is a high value part locatable at every step of a process, not only at the beginning and the end.
Defence
There is no network inside an ammunition bunker.
A German defence manufacturer stores ammunition and explosives in former bunkers, hazard classes 1.1 to 1.4. Each bunker has its own installation. Stock is confirmed by scanning, with no connection to the outside and without anyone counting by hand.
The customer has asked not to be named.
How a semiconductor programme starts.
No fab runs GlobeRanger today. The first one will define what this product does in the industry, and that definition is made in the boot camp, on one real process, rather than borrowed from another sector.
Demo call
13 or 26 minutesA video call with the GlobeRanger team. One question: does GlobeRanger fit your operation?
Bootcamp
1 to 3 daysCreditedOne to three days on site. We work out which assets carry the risk, whether it starts with reticles, carriers, chamber parts, or metrology equipment, and what a pilot would cover.
Pilot
6 to 12 weeksA trial run on your own use case, on one tool set, one bay, or one class of asset. Where it is faster, the pilot starts outside the cleanroom and moves in once the method is proven.
Performance Mode
ongoingThe rollout across bays, sites, or the whole fab, scoped and priced on what boot camp and pilot made concrete.
The first step costs 13 minutes.
