Robust and precise drives
The XYZ setup of the fiber alignment system consists of three motorized linear stages from the M-122 series for linear motion, and the WT-85 and WT-100 goniometers for angular motion. All stages are distinguished by their high precision and robustness. Because all drives are equipped with position sensors, it is possible for example, to reliably prevent collisions with expensive silicon wafers.
Extensive software package
The fiber alignment system is supplied with an extensive software package including the PIMikroMove graphic user software for startup and operation of all PI systems.
Programming interfaces are included in the software package that allow the user to integrate a PI controller into their own user programs. The control of the positioning system therefore becomes part of the user program. Interfaces are available for all common programming languages including NI LabVIEW and MATLAB.
Furthermore, there is an option to purchase the C-990.FA1 software. It provides a particularly convenient method for setting up the axes for scanning, performing the scans, and displaying the results.
Automatic alignment
In conjunction with the C-884.6DC and the optional C-990.FA1 software, it is possible to use the F-122.5DC 5-axis alignment system system for fully automatic alignment of light-transmitting components. For this purpose, the optical intensity signal is made directly available to the controller via its analog input.
Application fields
Alignment of optical components, qualification of optical components in silicon photonics
