China International Optoelectronic Exposition 2026
Asia’s largest trade show dedicated to optical and photonic technologies
Visit Symétrie to learn more about our high-precision positioning solutions.
Symétrie will participate in the China International Optoelectronic Exposition (CIOE), the premier event for manufacturers and researchers specializing in optoelectronic technologies, telecommunications, sensors, and photonics.
Innovations in the fields of optics, semiconductors, optical communications, and sensors require motion systems capable of ensuring extremely precise, stable, and repeatable positioning.
Symétrie hexapods address these challenges by offering complete control over all six degrees of freedom. They are used for optical alignment, component characterization, the integration of complex subassemblies, and high-precision testing.
Their parallel architecture ensures high performance while maintaining a compact design, which is particularly valued in both laboratory environments and production lines.
Come talk with our specialists
Our team will be on hand to assist you with your precision positioning projects and to present the solutions best suited to your optical, photonic, and metrology applications.
We look forward to welcoming you at our booth #6D66, where we will be represented by our local distributor, Motionsmart.
FAQ
What kinds of movements can the Symétrie hexapod perform?
The hexapod can perform combined movements based on its six degrees of freedom: three translations (X, Y, Z) and three rotations (Rx, Ry, Rz). This flexibility allows for complex adjustments that are impossible with conventional guidance systems.
What is the accuracy or resolution of the movements?
Our hexapods achieve resolutions on the order of 0.1 µm for translations and a few microradians for rotations. Repeatability is one of our strengths, ensuring the accuracy of every positioning operation.
What materials are used to build the hexapod?
We use high-performance materials such as anodized aerospace-grade aluminum, stainless steel, and components specifically designed for demanding environments (vacuum, cleanroom, non-magnetic).
Is it compatible with various software programs or control systems?
Absolument. Nous fournissons des bibliothèques de fonctions (SDK) compatibles avec LabVIEW, C++, Python, ainsi que des interfaces spécifiques pour les environnements de recherche comme EPICS ou TANGO.
Is the hexapod safe for use in laboratories or industrial settings?
Safety and reliability are at the heart of our design. The software includes configurable travel limits, virtual collision detection, and hardware safety features to protect your equipment and samples.
