| | | WHAT IS AN ASPHERE? | | |
| | | |
| | | An asphere is an optic with one or more surfaces that are defined by a polynomial equation. Aspheres are often used to reduce the number of elements, aberrations, and the weight of an optical system and are commonly found in telescopes, professional camera lenses, and diagnostic instruments. | | |

| | | MANUFACTURING TECHNIQUES | | |
| | | |
| | | Optimax specializes in the rapid manufacture ofprototype optical components. We utilize deterministic CNC center tools for predictable removal rates and adherence to tight tolerances. To control wedge, we use precision tools that maintain the optic axis. Optimax grinds and polishes most optical materials such as glass, fused silica, and crystals for UV to IR applications. | | |
| | | |
| | | TESTING ASPHERES | | |
| | | |
| | | Manufacturing aspheres demands the utmost in talent and technology. Just as important, however, is the actual measurement of the aspheric profile to assure adherence to specification. Optimax utilizes surface profilers to inspect to +/-1 micron tolerances, and null lenses with interferometers to certify parts with tighter tolerances. | | |
