Teledyne Semiconductor Wafer and Mask Inspection for Quality Control
In semiconductor manufacturing, yield drives costs, so manufacturers inspect products at many points between bare wafers and packaged ICs, seeking to identify defects as soon as possible. As lithography geometries shrink, inspection systems need to be able to resolve defects on progressively deeper sub-micron scales (eg. 45 nm, 32 nm, 22 nm...). In the highest-performance situations, the features are so small that visible light can no longer resolve them, and inspection systems must use deep ultraviolet (DUV) wavelengths for illumination.

Teledyne Continuous Web Inspection
Materials produced in a continuous roll or sheet, such as paper, textiles, film, foil, plastics, metals, glass, or coatings, are best inspected by line scan systems. Line scanning offers unlimited pixels in the in the direction of a web's motion with zero smear even at high speeds, higher dynamic range, greater processing efficiency and much lower price/pixel.

Teledyne 3D Imaging
Increasing automation and monitoring, the use of robotics, and other aspects of Industry 4.0 initiatives are increasing the demand for 3D imaging solutions which offer high levels of accuracy and distance measurement in a variety of challenging conditions. This is essential in complex object recognition and dimensioning applications and for handling complex interaction situations such as the growing trend for human/robot co-working.

Teledyne Verification
Machine vision systems are widely used for the verification of parts, assemblies and packaged goods. The range of verification applications are generally so broad, they utilize the same tools for positioning, measurement, identification and flaw detection. Verification is often combined with other tasks, such as measurement of part dimensions or reading of product barcode, to render 100% product inspection.

Teledyne Barcode Scanning
The trend to replace laser-based barcode readers with 2D image-based scanners is well underway in all Automatic Data Collection market sub-segments including scan engines, hand-held, fixed position, industrial/smart factory, and auto identification. To take full advantage of the technology transition, Teledyne has designed the Topaz family of CMOS image sensors, which have a tiny footprint, low-power consumption and use state-of-the-art low noise, global-shutter pixel technology to offer cost efficient solutions. Available in 1.5M and 2M, Topaz sensors enable ultra compact mobile designs for various barcode scanning applications and other logistics applications such as drones and autonomous mobile robots.

Teledyne Print Product Inspection
Many printed products (currency, tickets, commercial publications, newspaper, pharmaceutical and food packaging, and more) require 100% print inspection (often in color) as part of their quality control process; many require this inspection multiple times during production.
-
Teledyne Positioning
For inspection on high-speed production lines, offline verification audits or robot-guided pick and place, positioning tools are critical to successful machine vision. Positioning tools, locators or pattern finders recognize and determine exact position and orientation of parts. Results can be transferred directly to material handling devices or used to position other tools required for the inspection. We refer to this correcting for part movement as landmarking.

Teledyne Measuring, Gauging, and Verifying Tolerances
Manufacturing requirements for measurement range from presence verification to checking high-precision dimensional accuracy and geometrical tolerances. Attention to the inspection environment and image quality is as important as the vision algorithms themselves. Teledyne sub-pixel measurement tools, combined with the right optics and stable lighting, provide the precision and repeatability to ensure manufacturing accuracy.

Teledyne Postal and Parcel Inspection
Teledyne DALSA's high speed, large resolution Piranha XL, Piranha HS TDI cameras and Linea and Piranha 4 line scan cameras enable inspection systems to easily capture barcodes on any parcel. The huge advantages in sensitivity provided by TDI (often 100x more sensitive than traditional line scan) allows truly superior speed and image quality, even with stopped down lenses, and without the need for expensive, high-power illumination.
