Shortest cycle times of less than 10 seconds by ProCam®: More than 360 camera modules per hour with highest product quality. Repeatability of up to 0.5µm (during) in the alignment process.
Our systems are not only fast, but also very flexible: Product changeover in less than 1 min. Various customizing set-ups of collimators and test charts.
Trusted and proven processes: Electronic integration of more than 80 different cameras realized. More than 12 years of experience in Active Alignment.
We are celebrating our anniversary and would like to make a special promotion to our ProCam® customers:
The latest instrument ProCam® Lab – a newly developed system that meets the requirements of prototyping – takes its first big steps in the ADAS/ AD market and delivers uncompromising quality. We are happy to pass on the quality bonus to our customers and extend the warranty on the purchase of a ProCam® Lab from December 2021 to March 2022. Please contact our Sales Team!

Design optimization for the best possible active alignment process
The alignment is done in the sub-micrometer range in all 6 axes (tilt, shift, focus, rotation) to achieve the optimum image quality
Support for choosing the best manufacturing strategy based on your demands e.g. batch size and cycle time
Automatic glue dispensing
Alignment of the optics to the sensor or vice versa
Precise adjustments for translation, tilt, focus and rotation to allow for optimal image quality
Process ends with automatic UV-curing
Cycle time 12 seconds/ 300 units per hour (depending on the individual customer’s camera data)
Fast product change within the cycle time
Manually operated or integrated into an automated production line
High precision collimator target generators
Object generator, Dispense module, UV curing module
Thermal curing oven and freezer for glue storage
Sample specific workpiece carrier and lens gripper
Using high precision image analysis algorithms, all relevant parameters for the accurate alignment process such as the MTF at multiple field positions and the tilt of the image plane are automatically analyzed in real-time and used in the alignment process.
All stages of the alignment and measuring process are software-controlled by ProCam®
With the integrated scripting tool, the measurement and alignment process can easily be tailored to specific customer needs and products.
The measurement data can be saved in a database so that the process is completely traceable
