The Missing Link

A Breakthrough in Automated Assembly of Photonic Integrated Circuits

Assembly and packaging of photonic devices requires highly efficient production systems. Alignment is one of the biggest cost factors when producing these components since it is repeated several times in the production process. PI's revolutionary fast alignment technology has been unsurpassed for these challenges.

PIOne Sensors – High Performance for Nanopositioning Systems

An In-house Development for Precision over Large Travel Ranges

For conventional nanopositioning with piezo actuators and large travel ranges from 1 mm, incremental position sensors such as PIOne are used instead of capacitive sensors. Dr. Axel Grabowski, Head of Sensor Development at PI and developer of PIOne, explains the advantages of the the incremental position sensor with maximum resolution and moderate energy consumption.
