Company History

The spin-off and sister company of ISIS optronics GmbH – ISIS sentronics GmbH – was founded in 2006 by CEO Dr. Alexander Knüttel with co-partner Leonardo Venture GmbH of Mannheim.
At ISIS sentronics, an advanced version of the optical sensor technology developed by the medical technology enterprise ISIS optronics is applied to the needs of industry. Optical sensors and systems for industrial measurement and testing technology in a production environment constitute the target market of ISIS sentronics. The market segments served are: wafers/electronics, films/coatings, and automotive/machine components/microsystems engineering.
Our patented SCI technology permits extremely fast high-precision determination of layer thicknesses as well as three-dimensional form factors or microdefects. The ISIS sensor portfolio currently includes StraDex as a unique sensor for in-line monitoring of multilayer film production as well as RayDex as a unique product for dimensional metrology of very small interior spaces (diameter: 1 mm).
Stand-alone systems developed by ISIS sentronics offer all-in-one solutions meeting customers’ needs. Thus SemDex systems have numerous applications in the wafer/MEMS market and i-Dex systems in the measurement of internal geometries of precision components (markets: automotive/mechanical engineering, and medical technology).
