Ijspeert Innovative Technologies is a CERN spin-off commercialising CERN’s diaphragm technique for mechanical centring and fixation of objects. The novel technique centres and clamps the objects with help from a stack of plates, resulting in a strong clamping and a precise centring of objects regardless of shape. Originally developed for the alignment of the LHC corrector magnets, the technique has applications in electro-motor assemblies and the construction industry.
