PLATON combines plenoptic imaging and SPAD sensing for particle tracking. The prototype reconstructs three-dimensional events inside an unsegmented scintillator, potentially reducing the component count required by conventional detector architectures.
Vision Engineering has launched an autofocus microscope for production inspection. PicoZoom combines motorised optical zoom, focus stacking, controlled illumination, measurement, annotation, and reporting within a compact bench-top system.
Altus added higher-power laser depaneling equipment across Britain and Ireland. LPKF’s 90W CuttingMaster 3290 targets faster separation of thick FR4, ceramic, flex, and rigid-flex assemblies with reduced mechanical stress.
AIXTRON is expanding Malaysian operations around compound-semiconductor manufacturing equipment production. The Penang facility will add assembly, engineering, purchasing, and customer support for systems serving gallium nitride, silicon carbide, and indium phosphide devices.
