MetaOptics Expands Taiwan Metalens Production with Automated Tester Deployment
Event summary
- MetaOptics shipped its Automatic Metalens Tester to Taiwanese partner Pin-Jye Nano Technologies on March 12, 2026.
- The tester complements the Direct Laser Writer (DLW) system deployed at Pin-Jye in September 2025, enabling full metalens production capabilities.
- The system automates testing across visible and near-infrared wavelengths, improving throughput and quality control for mass production.
- MetaOptics is exploring further deployments in key markets to meet growing customer demand.
The big picture
MetaOptics' deployment of the Automatic Metalens Tester in Taiwan strengthens its position in the semiconductor optics supply chain. The move aligns with the growing demand for advanced optical solutions in Co-Packaged Optics (CPO), mobile, augmented reality, and automotive sectors. By integrating rapid prototyping with automated testing, MetaOptics is positioning itself as a key player in the mass production of metalens technologies.
