Customised Solutions
Almost every tool is customised
As part of our business model, we serve customers who need metrology and inspection solutions that do not exist in the market. Our dedicated group of mechanical engineers, software developers and application engineers listen to your requirements and come up with proposals to solve your challenge.
Examples for customised solutions include fully automated metrology and inspection systems for large area substrates as long as 4 meters in length, as well as customised handling systems or tools that combine different measurment and inspection functions in one system. Customised solutions represent an important pillar of our business ever since the founding of the company at the beginning of the 1990s.
