Software integrates laser guidance
NanoVia's NV3 motion control software integrates laser, motion and vision software to form a complete automation solution to laser equipment integrators.
Examples of micro polymer tubing applications include small bearing sleeves for micro medical devices and insulator sleeves for coil windings in micro solenoid actuators.
The mMultiDice system allows precision cutting of blind or through slots into medical tubing for increased tube flexibility.
It will also produce through-holes and slots for precision drug delivery, or split sleeves for insulating winding posts used to make electrical coils for solenoid or micro magnetic sensor devices.
mMultiDice is offered with specialised tooling and fixtures designed to client specifications.
NanoVia optimised the optical system for use with standard Coherent Avia products.
