The year 2022 brought many challenges for our company and employees. Despite the tense domestic and global situation, we managed to implement and deliver:

However, we are most proud of the growing number of projects where we have the opportunity to put together a functional unit or even manufacture an instrument that is not commonly available on the market.

And what custom systems have we completed in the past year?

Custom systems

YOUNG CHAMBER

At OptiXs, we are actively involved in solving your application challenges. And where a conventional solution is not enough, we strive to tailor it. Recently, we have implemented a fog chamber for cosmic ray detection for the CTU Faculty of Nuclear and Physical Engineering. The system has an observation area of 60 x 45 cm2, which is covered with safety glass, and remote control and parameter setting via PC.

THULIUM LASER FOR VETERINARY INTERVENTIONS

In April, we designed an affordable yet effective solution for veterinary procedures such as removing urethral tumors or ostracizing urinary stones for a veterinary clinic. For this requirement, we found a suitable OEM continuous thulium laser, integrated it into a one box system and created a user-friendly and easy to understand control interface.

CUSTOM FLOWBOXES FOR DUST-FREE ENVIRONMENTS

Workboxes are an ideal solution for the assembly or inspection of components where dust-free parts need to be avoided, typically the assembly of optoelectronic devices. According to customer requirements, we produce flowboxes of different dimensions tailored to the working environment. The boxes are equipped with filtration units (flowmodule) that ensure laminar airflow and filtration of dust particles of ISO class 5 according to DIN ISO 14644-1.

PUMP & PROBE PHASE MICROSCOPE

Another customer challenge was a solution for material research on thin films of chalcogenides, whose potential in photonics is being investigated at the University of Pardubice. The main innovation of the project was to increase the capacity by transitioning to the blue region of the spectrum, using fibre lasers. Our solution consisted in a microscopic system for pump & probe measurement of phase change dynamics in the material with two detection branches and a microscopic imaging part.
