Custom Made Optical Windows Processing

Custom optical windows manufactured to custom made dimensions from optical materials and technical sheet glasses to specific drawings and specification is important when a stock optical window size is not available.

Optical and custom glass processing machining technology has become increasingly advanced with computer controlled machines assisting the engineer in increasing productivity and quality. Specialist optical and custom glass machinery can usually cater for the most demanding requirements to custom sizes, thickness, shapes and quantities.

Custom made optical windows can be supplied as prototypes, batch runs, volume production, and OEM supply. Volume and OEM manufacturing optical windows can be supplied by JIT arrangements, blanket ordering and schedule releases.

Optical Engineering, manufacturing and fabrication of optical windows and technical glass windows include the following processing and services:

Optical Polishing

Polishing of the surfaces and edges using various polishing techniques and processes to degrees of flatness, parallelism and surface quality.

Flat Lapping

Lapping and smoothing of the opticalwindow surface to controlled finishes and tolerances.

Precision Grinding

Glass grinding and edging of raw materials to precision tolerances by cylindrical and inc grinding.

Glass Cutting

The cutting and sawing using diamond tools and abrasives using the latest cutting technology with minimal material loss.

Glass Machining

Custom machining of optical materials and glasses by milling, drilling and bevelling.

Surface Coatings

Additional services applied to the processed opticalwindow by screen printing and optical coatings.
