Active Alignment
The Jabil Optics Kasalis team is widely recognized for its commitment to the growth and use of active alignment technologies.
In 2015, Jabil acquired Kasalis, a global supplier of advanced manufacturing systems for the active alignment, assembly and test of compact optoelectronic devices. This has strengthened our mission of giving you the best in performance, quality and cost.
The focus of the Jabil Kasalis team in Burlington, MA is on using innovative technologies and processes to bring new cutting-edge technologies to market with speed and confidence.
Our expertise in active alignment guarantees you cost effective active alignment for optical modules in up to six degrees of freedom.
Customizable Pixid Systems
To obtain the highest optical performance, our Pixid systems position lenses in six axes within a 3D space to achieve optimal alignment relative to the image sensor.
This use of active alignment technology means that your optical modules have the most uniform clarity available within the market of extremely compact cameras and projectors.
Our range of customizable Pixid systems are used to actively align and assemble the smallest and most precise cameras in the world. For the Jabil Kasalis team, the assembly of high precision camera and projector modules is both a science and an art.
To achieve the best of both worlds, we marry sophisticated algorithms with innovative approaches to design and function, giving you optical products that stand out and get noticed.
