Machine Vision · Semiconductor Fabs
Sub-micron wafer alignment and defect inspection — telecentric optics, calibration and gauge R&R, verified where accuracy is measured in pixels.
Vision in a fab operates at the edge of what optics and lighting can resolve. Wafer alignment, die inspection and defect detection demand sub-micron repeatability, telecentric optics and lighting that holds stable across shifts — the difference between a real catch and a false reject is measured in pixels.
At that accuracy, calibration and measurement discipline decide everything: fiducial alignment, gauge R&R and a system a process engineer will trust to gate real product. We screen vision engineers on the practical judgment behind high-magnification inspection, not just tool familiarity, and certify them at three depths.
Every engineer passes a practical AI technical screener before they can be matched. On top of that, they can earn certification in this track at three levels — and only certified engineers can be assigned to your project.
Configures well-defined inspections and sets up standard lighting.
Designs robust inspection/guidance, handles calibration and variation independently.
Architects demanding vision systems, solves difficult lighting and accuracy problems.
