Line 1: == '''Keyence VK-X3000 Confocal Microscope \| SOP# : OAS-PF-0410-00''' == '''User Responsibility, Training, and Consequences of Misuse'''▼ ▲=== '''User Responsibility, Training, and Consequences of Misuse''' === OASIS prototyping facility, Protofab, operates as a shared research and prototyping facility. All users are expected to follow this SOP, facility policies, and applicable safety guidelines to ensure safe operation, equipment longevity, and equitable access for all users. === '''This SOP is not a substitute for hands-on training or tool qualification. Refer to User’s Manual and Guides for details.''' === Users must complete required Protofab training and receive authorization prior to independent tool use. In the event of misuse, unintentional error, or non-compliance, corrective actions will be educational, proportional, and focused on preventing recurrence, taking into account the user’s experience level and the nature of the issue. Line 18 ⟶ 16: Users may be held responsible for repair, cleaning, or downtime costs only in cases of negligence or repeated misuse. == Purpose == ~~# '''Purpose'''~~ The Keyence Digital Microscope is used in Protofab to perform high-resolution optical inspection, dimensional measurement, surface characterization, and documentation of micro- and opto-electronic devices and components. The system supports process development, in-process verification, failure analysis, and final inspection across research, prototyping, and low-volume manufacturing activities. # '''Scope''' This SOP applies to all uses of the Keyence microscope for non-destructive inspection and metrology of parts, assemblies, and substrates processed within Protofab. The microscope is intended for room-temperature, dry inspection only and shall not be used for live electrical probing, destructive testing, or chemical exposure.▼ # Safety & EHS▼ ## PPE such as protective eyewear is mandatory except while using microscope eyepieces. Refer to facility rules for details.▼ ## Do not stare at the LED light or reflected beam.▼ ## Do not touch the lens revolver while it is moving. Doing so risks catching hands or fingers in the mechanism.▼ ## Do not place your hand between the stage and the unit. Doing so may result in your hand getting caught and subsequent injury.▼ == ~~3.

The revolver rotates and the objective lens changes. # Adjust the observation Position by clicking the mouse in the Viewer Application or clicking the mouse. Refer to Reference manual for details. # Adjust the focus by turning the handle (coarse/fine) or the Viewer Application. Refer to the manual for details. === ~~5.3~~ Shutdown === 1. Shut down the PC after closing the applications. Line 91 ⟶ 84: 3. Turn off the controller. #== '''Metrology & Observation Procedures''' == Refer to below documents for general operation and features of the system.▼ ▲=== Refer to below documents for general operation and features of the system. === * “User’s Manual_VK-X3000” for Hardware * “Ref Manual Viewer Application” for operating software * “Ref Manual Multifile Analyzer Software_VK-X3000 === Refer to the documents below for detailed step-by-step guides to specific type of measurements. === * “Profile Measurement” for virtual cross-section. * “Plane Measurement” for point height and exporting results. Line 113 ⟶ 104: * “Teaching Module” is useful for evaluating multiple measurement positions by changing the lens to be used or measurement method. #== '''Troubleshooting''' == Do not attempt to fix any issue if you are not authorized. Contact facility personnel through portal and report the issue to be addresses. [[Category:SOP]]
