Manufacturing Technology
Qioptiq offers a complete capability for the manufacture of complex opto-mechanical assemblies and optronic modules.
Our world class manufacturing capability is internationally recognized for its fabrication of specialized components and modules, as well as capacity for high volume production. We offer a wide range of optical manufacturing, assembly and integration technologies to manufacture your product cost- efficiently, on time and with the highest levels of quality.
Our diamond-turning facility is capable of producing in excess of 1800 surfaces per week and we have the latest metrology to ensure quality is maintained at this rate of production.
Beside standard optics, we also offer aspheric generation, aspheric polishing and MRF finishing, enabling production of the highest performance components in the infrared and other wavebands.
Our capabilities include: • Fabrication of optical components (lenses, prisms, windows, domes, mirrors, filters, and more) • Deposition of optical coatings • Fabrication of volume holograms • Machining and finishing of mechanical components • Assembly, testing and qualification of complete optical modules
Our state-of-the-art integrated machining and UPMC facility makes us the uncontested highest-level manufacturer of optical components, including: • CNC ultra-precision diamond turning • CNC aspheric generation and polishing • Magneto-rheological finishing • Supporting metrology
