Future Lab at Schenck Process

Schenck Process is setting up the future lab to augment traditional research and development
The future lab brings together competencies from the most diverse areas of the business, with the ongoing task of thinking things further, in greater depth. The intention is to develop creative ideas and then turn them quickly into reality.
In doing so, the Schenck Process future lab also relies on interaction with customers, since it does not regard innovation as an end in itself, but rather innovates with the intention of generating added value for the organizations it serves.

Laser beam shaping using wavefront metrology

Precise characterization of adaptive optics
Applications which require specifically adapted, flexible phase and intensity distributions often apply adaptive optics such as deformable mirrors or spatial light modulators. These components can be characterized and calibrated with SHSLab wavefront sensors.
Variably adjustable wavefronts are also needed in laser beam shaping with adaptive optics, pulse shaping, holography or when using optical traps. Optocraft offers Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors with high frame rates for these applications.
