2012 Usage Top list
Tool usage registered in LabManager. For tools which are charged by booking, the amount of time is the booked time. For other tools it is the registered time.
Tool usage is part of Danchip's decision making processes for maintenance allocation as well as new acquisitions but by no means the only parameter.
There was another version of this list which didn't take the namechange of the furnaces in 2012Q3 into account. This has been fixed.
