High-Throughput 3D Optical Profilometer for Large PCB Panels

Product Overview
The ContourSP is a purpose-built, high-performance 3D optical metrology system engineered for large-format PCB, HDI, and MCM panel inspection. Designed to meet the increasing demands for accuracy and throughput in advanced electronics manufacturing, the ContourSP provides non-contact, nanometer-level surface characterization across substrates up to 600 x 600 mm.
Featuring Bruker’s patented Wyko® Vertical Scanning Interferometry (VSI) and enhanced with advanced features like Dynamic Signal Segmentation (DSS), re-measure functionality, and topography compensation, the ContourSP ensures maximum yield, uptime, and cost-efficiency in high-volume production environments.
Key Features
- Gage-capable 3D optical measurements with sub-nanometer vertical resolution
- Large-format stage supporting panels up to 600 x 600 mm
- High-speed scanning – more than 2× faster than previous generation systems
- Dynamic Signal Segmentation (DSS) for accurate via inspection even with fiber layer interference
- Recipe portability for multi-factory tool matching and scalability
- Vision64® software with pass/fail analysis, full databasing, and access control
- Quick-release, motorized 5-position turret with automatic objective sensing
- Remeasure and auto-alignment functions for increased repeatability and throughput
