The VIEW Engineering Inc. (Simi Valley, CA) Pinnacle is a large format non-contact dimensional measurement system for high volume, high capacity operation in production environments ranging from clean rooms to factory floors. Featuring a precision granite base and column, passive vibration isolation system, non-contact stage encoders and linear motors with exceptional acceleration and velocity performance, the system is useful for product design/development and near-line process monitoring applications in advanced manufacturing environments.

The precision metrology system is designed for dimensional measurement applications requiring the highest levels of accuracy and reliability. Its dual-magnification optical system uses two cameras for near instantaneous magnification changes. Multi-color LED illumination systems allow use of monochromatic red, green, blue, or white light for high resolution imaging.

The system features a measuring range of 250 x 165 x 100 mm (xyz) and an accuracy of U2 (xy plane) = (1.5 + 4L/1000) µm and resolution to 0.025 µm.

Applications for Pinnacle include ball grid arrays (BGA), micro-BGAs, chip scale packages (CSPs), flip-chip, multi-chip module (MCM) bump-on-die, lead frames, solder paste and chip carriers. It is electrostatic discharge (ESD) and Class 1000 clean room compatible.
