PI Extends Production Capacity – New Manufacturing Building
Videos reveal finalists’ new technologies, with online voting beginning October 28 and onsite voting available during the event.
Auburn, MA - PI, the global leader in nanopositioning, ultra-precision motion control and piezo technology, has completed the construction of an additional manufacturing building at its Eschbach, Germany site.
With investments of around $22M and 66,000 sf of additional space, PI is strengthening its global development and production center and the economic development of the region.
The expansion will enable production capacities of precision motion control and nanopositioning technology products to be tripled in order to meet the demands of customers from the semiconductor, photonics, laser processing and life sciences industries.

How cameras deliver sharp images despite changing distances
IDS Imaging Development Systems offers a range of models, from a webcam-like camera in industrial quality to a tiny autofocus camera that weighs just12 grams. The 13 MP autofocus camera uEye XC closes the market gap between industrial cameras and webcams. Setting up and operating only requires a cable connection. After that, the autofocus camera immediately delivers high-resolution, detailed images and videos. With the optionally available, quickly exchangeable macro lens, users can easily shorten the minimum object distance of the camera. This makes it also suitable for close-up applications. Focus from a distance of just 10 cm. The uEye XS is even more compact and fits into almost any application with its size of just 26.4 x 23 x 21.7 mm. Thanks to its autofocus and 5 MP CMOS sensor, it delivers consistently sharp images and videos from a distance of just 10 cm. When it comes to image quality, natural color reproduction and harmonious contrast are also decisive factors. IDS has therefore equipped the uEye XS with many other practical automatic features familiar from consumer technology. This includes white balance, exposure and gain. As a result, it delivers the best possible result in every situation.
