Filter Tuning Software (FTS)

Filter Tuning Software (FTS) by SpaceForest offers a universal, AI-powered solution for tuning microwave filters and multiplexers. It utilizes advanced AI algorithms and novel computational methods to streamline the production process, significantly reducing training time for operators, lowering labor costs, and minimizing human errors. The software is capable of tuning even complex filters, including those used in the space industry, with high precision and repeatability. FTS is designed to be fast, reliable, and operator-friendly, guiding users on which tuning elements to adjust, in what direction, and by what value, enabling operators with minimal training to achieve expert-level results. It offers maximum flexibility, adapting to various filter types and supporting both manual and automatic tuning modes. Key benefits include its applicability to all filter types, reduced training time and labor costs, elimination of the need for expert-level skills, fewer human errors, fault detection in filter design, and efficient tuning of complex filters and multiplexers. FTS can be installed on an external workstation or directly on Windows-based VNAs and integrates seamlessly with standard industrial robots and SpaceForest’s Multi-Head Tuning Robot for mass production. SpaceForest also offers a complete range of filter tuning hardware solutions (Filter Tuning Manipulator, Filter Tuning Head, Triple Rotary Tuning Head, Multi-Head Tuning Robot) that, when combined with FTS, enable full automation. The software is compatible with various VNAs, including Keysight’s ENA, PNA, and Handheld FieldFox, as well as those from Copper Mountain Technologies, Tektronix, and Rohde-Schwarz. SpaceForest also provides comprehensive services for microwave device production, from concept and design to analysis, simulation, prototyping, manufacturing, and post-production filter tuning.
