In the world of high-precision optical components, Zygo is a name that commands respect. A company that not only pioneered an industry but has continued to shape the landscape of technological progress for over 50 years. The heart of Zygo’s thought leadership lies in its innovative metrology tools, each engineered with proven precision to simplify tasks and exceed the stringent demands of every measuring challenge.

Take the Verifire™ Asphere+, for instance. This tool stands at the frontier of aspheric metrology, delivering high-performance, flexibility, and precision. It embodies Zygo’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of what is achievable, challenging the status quo, and driving innovation forward.

Then there’s the Verifire™ MST, a metrology tool capable of measuring multiple surfaces simultaneously. Such capacity boosts efficiency and speed in production optics metrology, eliminating bottlenecks and ensuring a smooth, seamless production process.

Not to forget the Verifire™ VTS, another instrumental asset in Zygo’s arsenal, providing efficient metrology solutions for production optics. Its inclusion underlines Zygo’s commitment to creating tools that not only excel in precision but also in practicality and efficiency.

Zygo’s optic profilers further reinforce their industry leadership. The Compass™ 2 offers automated, non-contact, and 3D surface metrology, streamlining processes and elevating precision. The Nexview™ NX2’s power and versatility make it a go-to tool for non-contact surface profiling. Lastly, the Zegage™ Pro HR’s precise and rapid profiling capabilities make it an ideal tool for high-paced, demanding shop-floor environments.

Zygo is more than just a producer of state-of-the-art metrology tools. It is also the premier fabricator of high-precision optical components and a trusted name in the design and manufacture of electro-optical assemblies. This ability to offer end-to-end solutions underlines Zygo’s thought leadership and demonstrates their unrelenting commitment to driving the industry forward.

FAB 40 highlights top U.S. metal fabricators, including acquisitive Cadrex

The Fabricator’s 2023 FAB 40 ranks U.S. metal fabricators by reported revenue. PR Newswire reported Cadrex Manufacturing Solutions debuted at No. 2 with $480 million in 2022 revenue after a series of acquisitions, while MEC again held No. 1 with $539.4 million.

  • 01PR Newswire reported Cadrex Manufacturing Solutions entered The Fabricator’s 2023 FAB 40 at No. 2 after a series of acquisitions.
  • 02MEC’s long-running No. 1 position, with $539.4 million in reported 2022 revenue, reinforces what scale and repeatable process look like at the top of the list, according to PR Newswire.
  • 03PR Newswire flagged both material price inflation and demand as drivers of record revenues, buyers should press suppliers on what portion of growth was pricing versus volume.

HUD backs a 24-month study on mass-timber modules that ship and stack faster

HUD backs a 24-month study on mass-timber modules that ship and stack faster

HUD funded a 24-month Washington State University project on hybrid mass-timber modular housing. It targets transportability and faster site assembly. A 2023 Journal of Building Engineering review says 2D modular CLT tends to ship farther and build faster than 3D.

  • 01If transportation is the cost driver, HUD’s study plan points straight at the spec: treat the truck interface, tie-downs, and lifting points as part of the structural module design, not afterthought hardware.
  • 02The most actionable design fork in the CLT modular literature is 2D versus 3D: according to a 2023 Journal of Building Engineering review, 2D modules are typically moved longer distances and assembled faster on average.
  • 03Owners who want future change-of-use optionality can start writing it into module grids and connection details now. HUD-backed research is explicitly testing modules that can be repurposed across occupancies over their lifetime.

HUD’s 24-month mass timber modular project goes after the cost driver: shipping the modules

HUD’s 24-month mass timber modular project goes after the cost driver: shipping the modules

HUD is funding a 24-month Washington State University project to redesign modular housing modules around transport and fast site assembly. Shipping is the design constraint. A 2023 Journal of Building Engineering review of 2009–2021 modular CLT projects suggests faster construction timelines, but logistics choices still decide feasibility.

  • 01In modular housing, transportation is becoming a first-order engineering spec, the module that is cheapest to build can still be the most expensive to move.
  • 02The 2023 review found 2D modular CLT projects were, on average, transported farther and built faster than 3D ones, so configuration choice shapes both transport reach and install time.
