Capabilities
Design, build & repair
Precision Laser & Optical Systems
Design, integration, alignment, and repair of laser optical benches and assemblies for research and industrial settings where the acceptable tolerance is measured in microns, not millimeters.
Micron-level tolerance, start to finish
The same alignment discipline that holds ±0.01mm repeatability in our imaging systems carries over to every laser bench we touch — it’s the same discipline behind every system we build, whether we’re designing an assembly from scratch or realigning one that’s already in service.
Repair and realignment, not just new builds
A laser optical bench that’s drifted out of alignment doesn’t always need to be replaced. HIT diagnoses, realigns, and repairs existing laser and optical assemblies, alongside designing and integrating new ones, so a system with a solvable problem doesn’t get scrapped over one.
Supporting research and industrial partners
HIT has supported laser and optical work for research institutions, including the University of Pennsylvania’s Biomedical Department and Fox Chase Cancer Center, as well as industrial assembly systems where the same precision requirements apply.
Frequently asked questions
- Does HIT repair existing laser optical benches, or only build new systems?
- Both. HIT designs and integrates new laser and optical assemblies, and also diagnoses, realigns, and repairs systems already in service.
- What tolerance can HIT hold in laser and optical alignment work?
- HIT works to micron-level tolerances, applying the same precision discipline — ±0.01mm repeatability — used across its optical imaging systems.
- What kinds of organizations does HIT support with laser and optical system engineering?
- HIT has supported research institutions, including biomedical research departments and cancer research centers, as well as industrial assembly systems that require the same level of precision.
