Background
Allen Krisiloff founded
Triptar in 1993 in order to build a company devoted to the design and
development of optical systems incorporating fine mechanics, electronics,
and software control. It is still a small company, but it has managed
and delivered several large and sophisticated development projects. Mr.
Krisiloff’s Optical Engineering experience began at the University of
Rochester's Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) while an undergraduate
in Physics during the late 1970's. He designed, built and tested picosecond
laser oscillators and test instrumentation. After the LLE, he designed
optics and opto-mechanics for machine vision modules in one of Eastman
Kodak's manufacturing units. He was recruited to Hampshire Instruments
in 1984 to help build the Nd:YLF oscillator and preamplifiers for the
early demonstration of a laser triggered X-ray source. Then he moved to
a position where he designed objective lenses and scanning lenses for
medium and high production applications. In 1991, he moved to GCA to manage
a multidisciplinary team of engineers. His group was responsible for all
metrology in the process of manufacturing a deep UV step-and-repeat camera
lens for the semiconductor industry. In 1993, Mr. Krisiloff started Triptar
as an independent consultant. He took on design and analysis jobs. Soon,
he started to rent laboratory space from a friend to build and test prototypes.
In 1995, Triptar joined efforts with Amarel Precision Instruments to design
and build a remote controlled double microscope system, called DFOS (Dual
Field Optical System), to serve as a non-contact probe on a coordinate
measuring machine. Mr. Krisiloff formed and directed a team of 13 employees
and subcontractors to create the DFOS instrument. It featured complete
control from a PC running Windows, specialized optical and electronic
designs, variable magnification, an autocollimator, machine vision metrology
based upon proprietary image analysis algorithms, and a database to store
and manipulate measurements. After this project, Amarel hired Triptar
to commercialize SurfaceScope™, a confocal microscope technology invented
at Oxford University, and to serve as the world-wide premier dealer to develop and maintain the distribution channels for the new product line.Over the following years, Triptar continues to design and manufacture systems and subsystems for clients such as GE Nuclear, Xerox, Northrop Grumman, Suss Microsystems, and Corning Incorporated.
