This article discusses the challenges encountered when performing visual inspection and rework using a microscope. Using the right type of microscope and optical setup is paramount in order to optimize the workflow and increase throughput. Challenges which can occur when performing visual inspection and rework with a microscope include determining the appropriate magnification and illumination and having a large enough working distance. However, other critical ones relate to workflow optimization, efficient reporting of results and training of users, and user comfort during inspection. Leica digital and stereo microscopes can help you overcome these challenges with a number of solutions which enable more efficient inspection and rework.

Key Learnings

  • Critical challenges to overcome during inspection and rework relate to workflow optimization, efficient reporting of results and training of users, and user comfort.  
  • Performing visual inspection and rework with a microscope requires appropriate magnification and illumination and a large enough working distance.
  • Optimizing the workflow and increasing throughput depends significantly on the type of microscope and optical setup.
