(Marposs: San Francisco and Bologna, Italy) — In July at Semicon West 2023, Marposs Group, a world leader in measurement and process monitoring technologies, announced the acquisition of Solarius Development, a leading provider of high-tech manufacturing solutions for the consumer electronics and semiconductor industry. Both segments are of strategic importance for Marposs’ growth and diversification.

Solarius provides engineering, application, and manufacturing expertise that covers the entire life cycle from design to installation, commissioning, training, application support, repair, and maintenance of precision systems for noncontact surface inspection, measurement, analysis, and visualization. Its solutions combine high-resolution sensors with automated data acquisition systems and powerful analysis software tools. Key applications include electronic devices (smartphones, tablets, smartwatches), semiconductors, and energy fuel cells.

Marposs Group, already a global leader in measurement, inspection, and testing solutions for the production environment, continues its M&A strategy by exceeding 30 acquisition operations. Marposs has been in the U.S. since 1963 and has had an operating office in Silicon Valley for more than 20 years. The group is already a supplier for companies that produce semiconductors, with grinding systems for silicon wafers and enclosures for smartphones.


Marposs Group has acquired Solarius, a provider of 3D inspection technologies for semiconductors, electronics, and other industries.

Established 22 years ago, Solarius has a strong presence in the United States (with headquarters in California’s Silicon Valley) and Asia—namely China, Korea, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, and Taiwan. Solarius also inaugurated a technology center in Germany in 2018, dedicated to the research and development of control systems for semiconductor production. The company has recorded sales of more than $12 million in 2022 with solid profitability and returns.

With the purchase of Solarius, Marposs further expands its solutions for optical measurement into other phases of the production process, including the “back-end” phase. In particular, it offers solutions for customers operating in consumer electronics, green energy, and the semiconductor sector, an industry that is in constant growth due to its fundamental role in the digital technological evolution and e-mobility.
