MORE ABOUT INSTRUMENT DEVELOPMENT:  Our Process | Our Industry Markets 
LIGO ETF Technology Demonstrator
Kinematically optimized designs (greatest precision and stability for least effort or cost)
Precision linear and rotary motion (way systems, flexures, cone bearings)
Stable mounting systems (Invar, compensated expansion, composites)
Controlled motion (servo controlled systems, encoder feedback)
Temperature control, thermoelectric coolers, thermal analysis
Materials selection: high/low temperature environments; magnetic sensitivity; low vapor pressure; electrical conductivity/insulation; strength/weight concerns; thermal expansion concerns; mechanical issues (lubricity, wear, stiffness, etc.)
Actuators (motors, PZT's, voice coils)
