Wedge Chip Holders
Features

​​​

  • Designed for safe handling and positioning of photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and optical substrates

  • Viscously damped clamping mechanism provides smooth, controlled chip loading and unloading

  • Controlled closure force helps prevent chipping and damage to substrates as thin as 0.25 mm

  • Magnetic actuation enables repeatable, hands-free opening and closing for improved operator safety and convenience

  • Accommodates substrate thicknesses from 0.25 mm to 1.00 mm

  • Precision 30° wedge contact surfaces provide stable, repeatable chip positioning during alignment and testing

  • Adjustable chip width setting supports devices from 3 mm to 12 mm wide

  • Integrated scale allows rapid setup and consistent clamping force for repeatable device loading

  • Ideal for photonic integrated circuit packaging, characterization, wafer-level testing, and optical alignment applications

  • WCH-2.7 has 2.7mm wide beam: accommodates 3mm - 6mm chip lengths

  • WCH-5.7 has 5.7mm wide beam: accommodates 6mm - 12mm chip lengths

  • Mounts directly to the standard mounting plate of Luminos Positioners
