ficonTEC CustomLine CL1500 to support integrated photonics eco-system development at ORC, Tampere University
Date Announced: 05 Feb 2021
The latest update to our cooperation with the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) at Tampere University (TAU) going back some 15 years, is the delivery of a CustomLine CL1500 for active assembly tasks involving fibers or lenses. CustomLine systems are ficonTEC s most adaptable and versatile multi-purpose micro-assembly machines, providing fully automated align-&-attach for integrating optoelectronic and photonic devices. This product line sees exceptionally diverse usage within R&D, process development, and manufacturing.
The ORC expertise, centered on the molecular beam epitaxy of III-V optoelectronic devices, forms an important part of the photonics technology eco-system in Northern Europe. The addition of the CL1500 extends the current capability for automated mounting of optoelectronic devices to coupling with optical fibers and micro-optic
