A cylinder is a surface that is circular in one direction and flat in the orthogonal direction. A cylindrical optic has one or more cylindrical surfaces. Cylindrical optics are used in medical instruments, graphic arts, laser printers, and semiconductor processing equipment.
Optimax uses several interferometric techniques including plano reference flats, spherical transmission lenses, and diffractive optical elements to verify the plano axis and power axis of the optic.
Optimax inspects 100% of all optics and provides test data with prototype orders. We utilize state-of-the-art metrology and provide on-time delivery guarantees to ensure your satisfaction!
Optimax can provide optics complete with BBAR, V-coat, and mirror coatings. We have four electron-beam coaters supported by a Perkin-Elmer Lambda 900 Spectrophotometer. For more details please see our Coatings data sheet.
