High-speed microscope for your production
MICRO.SPECTOR
Need to inspect the smallest components and structures in real time? Our high-speed microscope, MICRO.SPECTOR, automates the inspection of microstructured components. The MICRO.SPECTOR detects even the smallest defects and shape deviations, reliably rejecting defective parts. The MICRO.SPECTOR can be operated as a stand-alone solution or as a fully automated in-process inspection system.
HIGH-SPEED INLINE TEST
of microstructured components
Our MICRO.SPECTOR enables fully automated inspection of microstructured components and products for defects, shape deviations, and dimensional accuracy. Defective parts are automatically detected and can thus be removed from the production process.
The MICRO.SPECTOR has a modular design, allowing it to be used as a stand-alone system or as a fully automated solution within production. With barcode tracking, FFU (Functional Frequency Unit), lifting door, auto-loading, cleaning, and many other modules, we can tailor the system precisely to your needs. Depending on the configuration, we work with pixel resolutions starting at 0.48 µm. Fast data acquisition and processing ensure cycle times that match the production cycle.
With our MICRO.SPECTOR, you can reliably and quickly inspect large quantities – simply impossible by hand.

QC solutions
Our MICRO.SPECTOR is designed for direct integration into your production chain. From barcode tracking, change log, audit trail and user management to direct connection to your control level, we offer all the tools you need to make your QC more efficient and reliable.
Microscopic examination & maintaining an overview
Our MICRO.SPECTOR systems are equipped with high-resolution vision systems to detect microscopic defects and verify dimensional accuracy. Using fully automated inspection recipes based on your tolerances and thresholds, the system identifies defective parts and can reject them immediately. Our software is designed so that key performance indicators (KPIs) and information are readily visible, ensuring you always have a clear overview of your production performance.
Defect detection
The MICRO.SPECTOR is specialized for processing large amounts of data. We have designed our software so that even at higher resolutions, where data can quickly exceed 40 billion pixels, our systems won't falter. For defect detection, we use either classic image processing or machine learning, depending on the application. For time-critical applications, we rely on highly efficient algorithms to perform quality control at the production cycle.

FAQs about MICRO.SPECTOR
How quickly can the system check?
It depends entirely on your application. Often, the optimal balance between resolution and speed needs to be found. With some solutions, we can inspect entire components within a few seconds, while with other high-precision laboratory applications, inspection times can be significantly longer.
Which tests are covered by the MICRO.SPECTOR?
The MICRO.SPECTOR is based on machine vision systems using matrix and line scan cameras. Our focus is therefore on 2D inspections. If you require 3D inspections, please contact us. We also offer solutions with chromatic confocal line sensors or profile cutting systems.
I need a scalable solution, do you offer something like that?
Yes, in addition to the testing system, we build automation solutions for loading the system and also for transporting the components. The systems are designed so that they can be operated in parallel. This allows for any scalability.
Can I configure my exam on the system myself?
We are working to create a platform where our customers can implement almost any exam. The systems are currently designed in such a way that the tests are carried out by our experts and extensively tested for functionality. So we can guarantee the performance of the QC.
