3D Inspection: In-Line, At-Line & Lab

The industrial WLI™-sensor enables the realization of inspection solutions with interferometric precision and high throughput. Thanks to the robust and modular design, the sensors are suitable for a wide range of inspection tasks and can be flexibly used in measuring rooms, laboratories and harsh production environments.

From development to production and back

“The Swiss Army Knife of the Optical 3D Inspection”

Research and Development

Heliotis’s 3D sensors enable to easily measure and analyze a wide variety of samples in development and research. For this purpose we offer flexible laboratory systems that enable both interactive examinations and fully automated batch measurements.

In-Line, At-Line Quality Inspection

The experience gained from research and development can directly be transferred to the production line, as the 3D sensors of Heliotis are also ideal for sampling and 100% inspection on the production floor.

Off-line Defect Analysis

Process variations in production can be easily analyzed in the laboratory. Since the 3D sensors are suitable for both laboratory and the production line, new laboratory findings can be transferred safely and quickly into the inline test and inspection parameters of the production line.

R&D on Components and Processes
