IRVINE, Calif. - Sept. 5 -- Newport Corp. has announced the acquisition of Unique Equipment Co., a Chandler Ariz.-based systems integrator specializing in the use of robotics for the fiber optics and semiconductor industries. Unique Equipment's expertise in systems design and process problem solving will enhance Newport's next-generation assembly and test automation and materials handling solutions, said Newport.
