Avantes as Your OEM Partner
Avantes has 15 years of experience in applying spectroscopy and optical sensing technologies to enumerable environments and industries. Our partnership approach to working with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) is at the core of our success and philosophy as a business.
Avantes Sales Engineers follow a methodical discovery process with potential OEM customers to ensure our solution recommendation closely aligns with the needs of our customers. Upon reaching a consensus with our customers our team of engineers and support personnel works collaboratively to ensure successful integration and maximum interoperability. Avantes spectrometers, light sources and fiber optic sampling accessories provide the enabling technology for spectroscopy and material characterizations in these and many other industries:
• Food and Beverage
• Pharmaceuticals/Chemicals
• Petroleum
• Lighting
• Biomedical Technologies
• Metallurgy
• Semiconductor/Thin Film
  
AvaSpec - The OEM Spectrometer
The AvaSpec suite of instruments was designed with the rigors of OEM applications in mind. AvaSpec instruments offer superior resolution, sensivity, and electronic controls relative to comparable instruments on the market today. Avantes OEM customers are provided with a comprehensive OEM manual that details interfaces, wiring diagrams, instrument pinouts and connection information.
AvaBench Optical Bench
Avantes offers 3 standard optical benches for OEM customers. The AvaBench-45, AvaBench-50 and AvaBench-75 all feature symmetrical Czerny-Turner design with a choice of fiber optic entrance connectors (SMA 905, FC/FC, ST). The AvaBench can be configured with any one of 16 standard gratings covering 185-2500 nm and 9 detector arrays selected to meet the requirements of each application. Grating options range from a 150 line/mm grating for broadband applications through a 3600 line/mm grating for ultra-high resolution measurements. Avantes choice of detector arrays enables customer to meet the gamut of cost, sensitivity, resolution and signal to noise requirements associated with their OEM spectroscopy applications. Additional options include UV coatings, irradiance/non-linearity calibrations and detector collection lenses. For more detailed information about the Avabench, please click below:
AvaBench Optical Benches (45, 50, 75)
Customization of Avantes optical bench designs is also available. Avantes optical bench technology can be integrated with customer’s proprietary or third party electronic boards, but can be best leveraged in combination with Avantes proprietary AS161 and AS5216 electronics boards.
Electronics Controllers - AS5216 & AS161
Avantes optical benches can be controlled via one of two distinct electronics platforms corresponding to USB1 (AS161 Microprocessor board) and USB2 (AS5216 Microprocessor board). The newer and more advanced AS5216 platform is capable of supporting all detector types and optical benches and provides superior performance and greater configurability. The lower cost AS161 board can control up to two AvaBench optical benches but does not support all available detector arrays.

Software Interface
Avantes proprietary AvaSoft operating software enables OEM customers to collect and save spectra in absorbance, reflection, transmittance, irradiance and scope modes. In addition to our base software solution, Avantes offers a variety of modular software add-ons for color measurement, thin film, process control and chemometry.
Most OEM applications prefer a more directed software solution for each application. Avantes Dynamic Linking Library (DLL) interface facilitates instrument control outside of our proprietary software. This interface contains functions that enable setting/getting hardware parameters from the spectrometers, designing functions for data acquisition, establishing communication with one, or multiple spectrometers and communication with other devices using TTL, digital, and analog input and output signals. The interface package also includes a number of sample programs developed to initiate writing an application in C++, Visual Basic, LabView, CSharp, Delphi and others. OEM customers are provided with a detailed manual on our DLL interface as well as direct software development support.
