Automatic Mirror Alignment System

Our company’s independently developed Automatic Mirror Alignment System (Model: OA9000-PLM) is designed for the fully automated production of array semiconductor fiber-coupled pump lasers. The system features a pneumatic and vacuum structure design to ensure efficient material picking and positioning and uses high-precision stainless steel motorized stages to ensure precise movement in six-dimensional space. We provide a nine-axis intelligent controller with self-developed operating software. Compared with manual assembly, this automatic alignment system can significantly improve production capacity, reduce dependence on skilled operators, and ensure product consistency.

The system comprises a coupling unit, automatic dispensing unit, imaging unit, control unit, and programmable control software. The core coupling unit features Japanese imported motors with high accuracy and long service life, ensuring long-term stable operation of the system. The combination of efficient algorithms, our unique control technology, and dispensing design ensures that the system’s comprehensive performance is comparable to that of imported equipment from abroad.

Single-channel coupling time (excluding curing)
  • The system is capable of automatically powering up chips, picking up reflectors, fine-tuning couplings, dispensing and curing, and saving customer data to their database;
  • The reflector picking fixture is equipped with a vacuum sensor, which will automatically stop and alarm if the reflector cannot be picked up;
  • The equipment is compatible with multiple products, and the spacing and height of each channel can be adjusted as required;
Coupling efficiency
  • At least one continuous automatic coupling of all reflectors for a single product can be achieved in the specified order according to the process requirements, without touching and damaging the customer’s fibers during movement;
  • It is possible to freely select a certain optical path for coupling, rather than simply coupling in a specific order (from reflector 1 to reflector N), so that users can rework the reflector coupling of a certain optical path as needed;

Linear slide resolution
  • Automatic adjustment of the base position, and automatic lowering of the power probe;
  • Automatic recognition of the mirror position, and automatic smooth placement into the coupling area;
  • After the chip is powered up, the system automatically fine-tunes the reflector according to the optical power until the maximum power value is coupled;
Rotary slide resolution
  • The power-up process can gradually increase from low current to rated current;
  • Uniform distribution of dispensing, with dispensing length adjustable within 3-9mm;
  • The system encompasses multiple modes, including Operator Mode and Engineer Mode. The Operator Mode boasts a straightforward and user-friendly interface that is easy to navigate, whereas the Engineer Mode is fully functional and facilitates convenient debugging. It enables manual control of each module and can modify programs to accommodate product processes. It is proficient in performing various sensor tests, dispensing tests, and power-up tests.
