02/14/12 Automating solar cell inspection
From ingot to finished panel, photovoltaic solar cells fabricated from crystalline silicon wafers, which are typically 100-200 um thick, can pick up defects at any stage of manufacture. Every time one of these delicate wafers is touched mechanically, stresses applied can create microcracks that can grow unpredictably, leading to mechanical failure of the wafer during subsequent handling steps. It is important to pull wafers with critical microcracks out of the production line quickly to prevent both wasted processing of already ruined wafers, and production-line stoppages caused by shards of wafers that shatter during processing. Backlight and Luminescence inspection at near infrared (NIR) wavelengths is critical at every stage of solar cell manufacture, but low luminescence levels from silicon make testing at production rates problematical.
12/12/11 Teledyne DALSA sensors to guide NASA rover on Mars
NASA-designed and Teledyne DALSA-manufactured CCD sensors are once again being used on a NASA mission to Mars. Successfully launched on Saturday, November 26, 2011, the sensors are embedded in the Engineering Cameras of the Curiosity Rover. The Engineering Cameras, known as the Navcam and Hazcam cameras, are located on the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) Rover and are used for navigation on the surface of Mars. The Rover will use 4 Navcam cameras and 8 Hazcam cameras.
12/08/11 Teledyne DALSA secures earth observation contract with Surrey Satellite Technology
Teledyne DALSA today announced it will partner with Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL), a leading provider of operational and commercial satellite programmes, to develop a new multispectral sensor for an advanced earth observation application. With the help of Teledyne DALSA's expertise in multispectral imaging, the multimillion dollar development project is expected to begin delivering high resolution images during 2014. This earth observation application will utilize the DMC3 satellite constellation and demand higher resolution commercial earth imaging than any past project. The multispectral sensors developed by Teledyne DALSA will allow SSTL's subsidiary company and client, DMC International Imaging, to acquire higher resolution data for applications such as urban planning and environment and disaster monitoring.
12/01/11 Teledyne DALSA pesents its first high-sensitivity Near-Infrared Camera
Teledyne DALSA today introduced the Piranha™ HS NIR 8k camera. Featuring improved sensitivity in near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, the Piranha HS NIR benefits from time delay and integration (TDI) technology. The camera is designed to meet the requirements of low light applications such as solar cell inspection, PCB / electronics inspection, large web applications, and food and drug inspection. Improved sensitivity in the near infrared region is critical to the success of equipment in a number of applications," said Xing-Fei He, Senior Product Manager at Teledyne DALSA.
11/29/11 Teledyne DALSA partners with Quebec industry leaders to support Green ICT initiative
Teledyne DALSA today announced its parntnership to be one of six companies partnering with Quebec’s Ministry of Economic Development, Innovation and Export Trade (MDEIE) to support a $70-million initiative in programs to develop “Green ICT”—the application of information and communications technology to reduce environmental impact. The project, known as “Equation” and administered by Prompt Inc., a non-profit corporation that stimulates industry-university R&D partnerships to increase the competitiveness of the information and communications technologies (ICT) sector in Quebec, is made possible by a $30 million contribution from the Government of Quebec and an investment totaling $40 million from six industry partners including CGI, Ericsson, Fujitsu, IBM, Miranda Technologies Inc., and Teledyne DALSA.
10/25/11 Teledyne DALSA launches BOA Pro for industrial inspection applications
Teledyne DALSA announces the launch of its new BOA™ Pro smart camera.The BOA Pro combines the robustness of Teledyne DALSA's highly integrated BOA smart camera with the flexibility of Teledyne DALSA's advanced Sherlock inspection software, resulting in a compact industrial vision solution with diverse applicability across all manufacturing industries.
