Melles Griot announces a new range of turnkey fiber-alignment workstations. The 17 AWG 001, first in a series of automated waveguide alignment systems, is designed specifically for fiber-to-arrayed waveguide-to-ribbon fiber applications.

System features include parallel-flexure NanoMax™ positioning stages for around-the-clock reliability, NanoTrak™ optical signal optimization, and high resolution machine vision for fast, reliable component pre-alignment. ActiveX® software architecture allows users to develop custom alignment algorithms quickly and easily using LabVIEW™, C++, Visual Basic®, or other Windows®-based development languages.

Melles Griot is a leading designer and manufacturer of automated manufacturing solutions for fiber-optic applications. We develop the systems from our own range of mechanical hardware, motion control technology, vibration-isolated ergonomic workstations, and machine vision products. The company has manufacturing and distribution activity in 41 countries and is a member of Barloworld Scientific Ltd.
