Regional Capabilities & Expertise

Precision Optical Assemblies and Systems

Advanced optical assemblies designed for applications in machine vision, laser processing, and a number of technologically advanced industries require extremely precise manufacturing practices to achieve the most accurate specifications possible. Several of these techniques include active alignment for lens centering, point source microscopy for MTF testing, free-space optical system testing, far-field laser co-alignment and boresight testing, and double pass telescope testing.

Specialized Testing Includes

Manufacturers of cutting-edge technology not only require the most accurate and precise manufacturing standards; they require the most advanced testing equipment for quality assurance metrology. Trusting that manufacturers can guarantee the highest level of quality starts with being able to test the highest level of performance. The Edmund Optics Tucson Advanced Design and Assembly Facility is able to measure component-to-system-level performance for optical systems.

   Modulation Transfer Function (MTF)Reverse projection, point source microscopy, slanted-edge, camera testing, and more.

   Wavefront and Distortion Testing Shack-Hartmann, beam waist and location, divergence, Rayleigh length, M2, beam parameter product (BPP), Strehl ratio, point spread function, and QuadriWave Lateral Shearing Interferometry (QWLSI).

   Environmental Testing Product streamlining for instrumentation, stability ruggedization for pointing stability, protection against particle and liquid ingress, and athermalization for extreme temperatures and broad temperature ranges.

   Stray Light ISO 9358 Glare Spread Function (GSF) testing and other custom tests.

   Laser Beam Profiling XY scanning slit beam profilometry for measuring beam size, laser sight assembly, pointing, co-alignment/boresight and spectrum analysis for wavelengths from visible to NIR.

   High-Precision Mechanical Tolerances Coordinate-measuring machine (CMM) testing, autocollimator testing of opto-mechanical motion repeatability, theodolite, reference flat or a polygon tool if significant rotation is needed.

   Application-Specific Tests White light interferometry (Zygo NewView 7300) for surface roughness and profile measurements, OLED and other display-type eyepiece assembly and testing, eyepiece-to-prism embedded reticle alignment and assembly.
