Developing custom lenses

Lens design from scratch
We can support you already from the point when you create the requirements document. We will help you to determine the exact specifications for your application so that we’re able to develop high-quality and cost-optimized lenses for you. Based on our own lens database, experience and Synopsys CodeV, our optic experts develop your required initial design. Already in the conceptual stage, we place great emphasis during the design process on the tolerance analysis to ensure precise mounting of the lenses; this will finally maximize the yield of the production process. With the help of our competence network, we can manufacture the first prototypes of your lens. Alternately, we can consider the ancillary conditions of your partners and reoptimize the optical design based on the production processes of your suppliers.



Our Services
Optical design
- Design of optical components up to complete optical systems from innovative concepts all the way to design for manufacturing
- Minimizing production rejects through high yield optimization
- Full access to lens design for proprietary manufacturing if desired
Opto-mechanical design
- Optical and mechanical design from one source ensures the best overall performance
- Development from simple fixed focal length lenses to complex zoom systems
- Motorized or manual zoom and focus
- Thermal stabilisation through clever combination of design and materials
- Appearance design can be adapted to your corporate design
Tolerancing, straylight and ghost suppression
- Rigorous analysis of potential sources of noise and ghost signals eliminates the risk of bad surprises after production
- Continuous tolerance analysis already in the concept phase leads to the best system matching the manufacturing process
Prototyping and series production
- Prototypes and small series can be assembled and tested in our clean room facilities
Test systems
- Interferometer for testing form deviation spherical and aspherical lenses
