SHOW SPIE PHOTONICS WEST ➤


centre in the South Hall. To learn more about LightPath’s


precision glass moulding capabilities, an open invitation is extended to all attending the show. Some of the highlighted products to be displayed include acylindrical lenses, aspheric mirrors, insert moulding, lens edging, dicing, and edge blackening, and thermal imaging lens assemblies. During the show, LightPath’s executive VP of Operations, Alan Symmons, will be teaching a class on the Fundamentals of Molded Optics, on Wednesday 17 February from 8:30am to 12:30pm. In addition, the company’s senior optical engineer and expert in laser optics, Dr Andrew A Chesworth, will be presenting a paper on Thursday, 18 February from 9:50am - 10:10am, as part of SPIE OPTO conference on novel fibre fused lens for advanced optical communication systems. www.lightpath.com


Photonics West 2016 is the fourth time that Mirrorcle Technologies will participate as an exhibitor, showing its well-established single- and dual-axis MEMS mirrors for high-speed optical beam steering. One of the highlights will be the introduction of a new, 5mm


systems for laser precision balancing of rotors.


diameter optical aperture MEMS mirror, which is the logical expansion of the company’s product portfolio of devices previously ranging from 0.8mm to 4.2mm mirrors. Visitors can examine the introductory development kits to get a hands-on experience with MEMS products, as well as witness and interact with newly developed application examples that include 3D tracking and scanning. Some of the latest prototypes will be demonstrated. The Mirrorcle team invites


interested parties as well as established customers to booth number 5660 (North Hall, Moscone Centre) – it is a great opportunity to personally discuss your application and how our products can facilitate your development. www.mirrorcletech.com


Nanosystec will present the latest generation of micro assembly stations with laser welding, epoxy gluing and laser soldering, as well as


The NanoWeld Station aligns a permanently lensed free beam or fibre-coupled laser diode modules with high coupling efficiency and pointing accuracy. In the new free- beam configuration, the focus and the pointing of the laser beam can be adjusted in up to 10m distances with a deviation of less than 0.2mrad. NanoWeld TLPW (Transparent Laser Plastic Welding) can process any transparent thermoplastic polymer. The fibre laser operates in the near infrared where polymers are semi-transparent, hence they absorb enough laser power to ensure a secure weld without the use of additives.


NanoPlace is used to position opto-electronic and medical components on planar structures for joining with UV-sensitive adhesives or laser soldering. Location errors of less than 1μm can be achieved. The NanoBalancer removes the finest imbalances in rotors and impellers using pulsed lasers during the balancing process. For impellers made of plastic, a CO2


laser is used


as a beam source, while lasers in the picosecond range are integrated for machining metals. www.nanosystec.com


Ocean Optics will be exhibiting its new Flame-NIR spectrometer. Flame-NIR combines the small size of its optical bench with a high performance uncooled InGaAs array detector for spectral response from 950-1,700nm. The spectrometer is ideal for applications in food integrity, biomedical sciences and pharmaceuticals production. The spectrometer delivers high thermal stability and low unit-to-unit variation without compromising the flexibility and configurability found in modular, miniature spectrometers. Because


thermoelectric cooling is absent from its design, Flame-NIR has low power consumption that makes it more convenient to integrate into handheld and portable systems. Additional features include interchangeable slits and simple device connectors.


The device has a footprint of 89 x 64 x 34mm and weighs 265g, making it ideal for OEM integration and lab, industrial and field
