In this video filmed at the Photonics West 2023 meeting in San Francisco in January, Damon Lenski, US general manager from Avantes, talks about the company’s new Pacto spectrometer – a compact device that’s designed to be embedded in other systems.
The Pacto is perfect for the life sciences and biomedical industries thanks to its ultra-low stray light levels. But it’s also ideal for use in precision agriculture – for example, to analyse grains or to sort fruits – and in the semiconductor industry, where it can help take high-resolution measurements of plasma.
Lenski goes on to describe how it has been made using Aventes’ new “AvaMation” manufacturing approach, which ensures very high unit-to-unit reproducibility. This process will be extended to other product lines during 2023.
