Precision Automation has become a rapidly growing industry as manufacturers must develop ways to achieve ever-tightening tolerances. Likewise, research must push the envelope in order to maintain the increasingly advancing pace of technology. Aerotech has been providing know-how and solutions to researchers within academia and laboratories worldwide for 50 years and continues to empower students and technicians to complete and publish their research.
In this seminar, we will discuss why automation and motion control is important as well as the various methods by which Aerotech has helped expand the boundaries of research in the field of optics and photonics. While Aerotech produces solutions for various industries all over the globe, the topics we will cover in this session include:
What Precision Motion Control is and why it is important
How to choose the right set of motion control
How Aerotech has helped further research in:
Light Sources and Beamlines
Optical Positioning and Ultra-Fast Spectroscopy
Medical Device Manufacturing
After the presentation, a round-table discussion will be held during which we’d like to hear from you! Please bring with you any topics and - more importantly - any tough issues that you’d like to pose pertaining to automated motion control within your specific research field.
About The Presenter:
Zachary Penrod is the Business Development Manager focusing on Academia and Research Institutions as well as the problems they seek to overcome. He is based at the Aerotech Corporate HQ in Pittsburgh, PA. Zach received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Penn State University. His main goal is to better understand the needs and desires of the students, researchers, and faculty of the world’s universities as we move together into the age of automation.
