• Dyvoce (ダイボス) surface shape measurement system

  A non-contact shape measurement system using a laser displacement meter matched to the workpiece, equipped with ease-of-use functions and a simple user interface, enabling various measurements through the reliability and motion control technology of a high-precision stage manufacturer.

• TSS-1000 hand-shake simulator

  A hand-shake simulator using a 3-axis tilt mechanism, suited to reproducing hand-shake patterns of digital cameras and video cameras; its high response accuracy on each axis also allows use as a positioning mechanism requiring precision.

• FPP03-13 precision positioner

  A drive mechanism developed for optical device assembly alignment devices requiring high resolution; its unique internal structure enables sub-micron positioning that was difficult with conventional micrometers.

• MPS series compact high-precision 6-axis manipulator

  A compact high-precision 6-axis manipulator suited to fine positioning such as attaching CCD camera elements; compared with conventional manipulators it simultaneously achieves miniaturization, weight reduction, higher rigidity and cost reduction while maintaining high precision.

• SMR-6B2 automatic 6-axis alignment stage

  Because the company's stages are designed and assembled/adjusted with an emphasis on rigidity, high precision is achieved even when combining up to 6 axes; it is widely adopted in production equipment for smartphone camera modules and can also be used for assembling automotive camera modules.
