Fast and high-precision drives

The basis of the fiber alignment system is a very stiff setup with an H-811 hexapod and an P-616 NanoCube^® nanopositioner. The parallel-kinematic design for motion in six degrees of freedom ensures high system stiffness. The motorized drives make long travel ranges possible and at the same time, the NanoCube^® nanopositioner allows fast scanning motion and dynamic compensation of drift effects. Flexure guides and all-ceramic PICMA^® actuators guarantee a long lifetime. Because all drives are equipped with position sensors, the system works precisely and reliably with high repeatability.

Extensive software package

The software package supplied in the scope of delivery allows integration of the system into virtually any environment. All common operating systems such as Windows, Linux, and macOS as well as a large number of common programming languages including MATLAB and NI LabVIEW are supported. Thanks to sophisticated program examples and the use of software tools such as PIMikroMove, the time between starting integrating and productive operation is shortened considerably.

Application fields

Alignment of optical components and parts, assembling technology in silicon photonics, packaging.

High-performance scan routines

The sophisticated scan routines are integrated directly into the controller, which considerably improves the performance and simplifies integration. The system can manage all tasks in the field of fiber alignment. The integrated rotational scans enable fiber arrays to be optimized on all channels very easily.

High-resolution analog input

The controller receives the optical intensity signal directly via a high-resolution analog input. Complex setups with cameras are not necessary. Various distribution functions are available for determining the maximum intensity.

* The travel ranges of the individual coordinates (X, Y, Z, θX, θY, θZ) are interdependent. The data for each axis in this table shows its maximum travel range, where all other axes and the pivot point are at the reference position.

See the dimensional drawings for the default coordinate system and pivot point coordinates of the hexapod. Changing the pivot point will reduce the travel range in θX, θY, θZ. Changing the orientation of the coordinate system (e.g., when the optical axis is to be the Z axis), will change the travel range in X, Y, and Z. ** without polynomial linearization

*** typical time span for scanning the entire area and moving to the highest intensity
