Photonics is transforming industries, from ultra-fast communication to advanced sensing and precision manufacturing. With our integrated approach we go beyond components. Merging optics, mechanics, and control technologies into one seamless solution, delivering robust, high-precision systems for photonics applications.
Photonics engineering focuses on generating, controlling, and detecting light to create advanced technologies such as lasers, fiber‑optic systems, and optical sensors. With deep expertise in physics and system engineering, our multidisciplinary teams develop solutions that enable high‑speed data communication, precision medical instruments, and other essential high‑tech applications.
As a rapidly growing field, photonics drives innovation across sectors like healthcare, aerospace, semiconductors, and quantum technology. Its ability to deliver faster, more accurate, and energy‑efficient systems makes photonics a cornerstone of next‑generation products and industrial processes.
Demcon high-tech systems and Demcon focal combine decades of experience in multidisciplinary system engineering with deep expertise in optics, optomechatronics, and precision mechanics. We help photonics innovators bridge the gap between research and industrialization, accelerating time-to-market without compromising performance.
Photonics systems are inherently complex, requiring seamless integration of optics, mechanics, electronics, and software. At Demcon, we bring all these disciplines together under one roof, ensuring that design decisions are made in an integrated manner rather than sequentially. This approach prevents sub-optimizations and accelerates development.
We design optomechatronic modules where optical elements, positioning, and mechanical stability function as one system. This includes beam shaping, active/passive alignment, and optical columns resistant to thermal and mechanical variations.
Leveraging experience from semicon and aerospace, we ensure mechanical rigidity and thermal stability, critical for photonic packaging and reliability.
Our teams develop advanced control architectures for active alignment, vibration isolation, and adaptive optics.
Using multiphysics simulations, we validate designs early, predict thermal and mechanical behavior, and optimize system performance before hardware is built.
The photonics industry is at a tipping point. Integrated photonic chips promise breakthroughs in data communication, sensing, and healthcare, but the step from prototype to scalable product remains a major challenge. Like quantum, photonics is a relatively young market with few practical applications and rapidly evolving specifications. This is where we can add value.
By integrating disciplines in a single development organization, we shorten development cycles, reduce risk, and deliver manufacturable solutions tailored to the unique needs of photonics innovators.
