Assembly, Production of Key Components

We include our production very early in the development process, since early control and cooperation shortens and facilitates the transfer of products to the production chain.

We work with the newest CNC technologies, employee experts for the different areas of material processing, manufacture products in cleanrooms and implement the best-suited fine correction procedures, depending on the application (ion beam processes, Magneto Rheological Finishing (MRF), mechanical fine correction).

As in development, experts for every task also work in our production and installation teams. In the end, there is always one solution: You receive a competitive product according to your required specifications and in the desired time.

Our key components range from planar, spherical, aspherical and cylindrical optics as well as prisms and prism systems, to chucks and precise structural components, all the way to application-specific coatings.
