Aerotech will exhibit motion control and automation systems at Photonics West, booth 749, with demonstrations focused on electronics, semiconductor and medical device manufacturing.
- Multi-channel photonics alignment platform: Developed with SENKO and Santec, the platform performs active alignment of multichannel arrays with six degrees of freedom for photonics and co-packaged optics test and assembly.
- 3D laser processing system: Demonstrations will include 2- and 3-axis laser scan heads, DrillOptimizer and Infinite Field of View for laser processing applications.
- R-θ gantry with mini hexapod: Combines linear and angular motion with 6-DOF positioning for space-constrained industrial or scientific processes.
- Motion control updates: Automation1 Motion Control System demonstrations will include MachineApps HMI Builder and PWM+, with connectivity options including EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP and Modbus.
- Motion components: Aerotech will also show laser scan heads, stages and positioners, motors, drives and controllers.
Aerotech’s Justin Bressi will present “Active Alignment for Co-Packaged Optics: An Integrated Solution to the Alignment Challenges of Multichannel Optical Devices” on Jan. 20, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. in Room 3016, Moscone West, Level 3. The paper is co-authored with R. Ryan Vallance, Ph.D., vice president of the Emerging Technologies Group at Senko Advanced Components, and Chris Heisler, director of R&D at Santec Corp.
