ZYGO HIGHLIGHTS PRECISION OPTICAL AND METROLOGY SOLUTIONS AT SPACE TECH EXPO EUROPE 2024

Zygo will be sharing the booth with AMETEK Engineering Interconnect and Packaging (EIP), specialists in market-leading hermetic interconnect and electronic packaging solutions for extreme environments.

(Middlefield, CT, USA 4th November 2024) Zygo Corporation, a business unit of AMETEK, Inc. (NYSE: AME), is thrilled to announce its participation in the Space Tech Expo Europe, taking place in Bremen, Germany from 19-21 November 2024. Visitors are invited to visit booth ZZ22, where Zygo will be on hand to discuss its cutting-edge optical metrology instruments and precision optical components designed specifically for space applications. Zygo will be sharing the booth with AMETEK Engineering Interconnect and Packaging (EIP), specialists in market-leading hermetic interconnect and electronic packaging solutions for extreme environments.


"For over five decades, Zygo has been recognized as a leader in both precision optics fabrication and metrology solutions," says Peter Kuschnir, Zygo's European Sales Manager. "We are genuinely excited to engage with attendees at Space Tech Expo Europe. Our heritage in optics manufacturing and metrology allows us to contribute significantly to space-based applications, where high-performance 3D metrology is key to achieving manufacturing excellence and improving process development."

The increasing demand for mission-critical optics in commercial space applications underscores the need for precision and partnership throughout the product development process. From concept to launch, optical components must meet stringent quality control and design-for-manufacturing (DfM) standards. Zygo prides itself on its collaborative approach, working closely with clients to deliver components that withstand the challenges of space — from the intense pressures of launch to the harsh environmental conditions of orbit.

"Our optics are engineered to survive the extreme demands of space," Kuschnir adds. "With extensive experience in producing optics for satellites and other space applications, Zygo ensures durability and stability throughout the lifecycle of the components. Our designs address thermal dynamics, high vacuum conditions, and radiation exposure, offering robust solutions that remain commercially viable and fit within tight project schedules."

Zygo's optical components are not only built to endure the rigors of space travel but are also specifically designed to excel in the challenging environments of low Earth orbit. These components are athermal across wide temperature ranges, capable of withstanding thermal gradients, and are fabricated with specialized materials to resist ionizing radiation. This expertise ensures that the optics continue to perform optimally for the duration of their mission.

"With decades of practical expertise behind us, we can confidently provide optical systems that meet the highest standards of performance under extreme conditions — all while ensuring cost-effectiveness and meeting project timelines measured in months, not years," Kuschnir concludes.

Zygo invites attendees to visit booth ZZ22 at Space Tech Expo Europe to discuss its solutions for high-precision optical and metrology needs. Whether visitors are developing satellite optics or seeking expertise in three-dimensional metrology, Zygo's team will be on hand to discuss how the company's capabilities can support the future of commercial space applications.
