The current acquisition combined with the acquisition last year by Semilab of the Basler micro-crack inspections systems now means sorter manufacturers and PV cell/wafer producers have a single supplier solution for all their metrology, inspection and analysis needs, the company said.
Tordivel Solar said its recipe and yield management software already supported the Semilab series of in line thickness, sheet resistivity and lifetime measurement systems as well as the Semilab micro crack inspection systems.
The systems are built on Scorpion Vision Software for user friendliness, configurability, reliability, flexibility and ease of maintenance.
The Scorpion Vision Software is supplied by Tordivel Solar’s sister company Tordivel AS, and Semilab and Tordivel AS has entered into a software license agreement, where Tordivel will serve Semilab on an exclusive basis within the Wafer Inspection Business.
Semilab president and CEO Tibor Pavelka said that this acquisition strengthens the company’s product offering in incoming substrate and PV process metrology and inspection.
