What is it?

The source describes ZYGO Optical Profiler systems, including the NewView series and the Z3D-7000, as fast, noncontact, high-accuracy 3D metrology tools for surface features. It states that the systems use proprietary MetroPro software and are used to characterize surface roughness, step heights, critical dimensions, and other topographical features.

Answerable by: OEM historical records or a trade-press announcement
The control-system platform and OS era of the 3D are not on record.
Answerable by: an engineer who operated it or OEM installation records
No publicly documented failure modes or field errata for the 3D are on record.
Answerable by: a field service engineer, process engineer, or maintenance technician
The process node or technology generation of the 3D is not on record.
Answerable by: an OEM datasheet or a fab qualification report
No publicly documented compatible parts, consumables, or accessories for the 3D are on record.
