Optics and photonics

We excel at manufacturing tight-toleranced, highly-engineered parts for optical systems in military and defense, space technology and metrology applications.

We readily work with exotic materials that other machine shops won’t touch. We have invested in fire-suppression-equipped machines for cutting magnesium and have developed the necessary processes for its safe handling. We machine costly materials such as aluminum berrylium with confidence.

Our location near the optics hub of Rochester, NY means we can work in close partnership with leading optical manufacturers both locally and around the country, delivering precision machined parts for the most demanding optical systems.

Materials and tolerances for optics

machined optical component We work with a wide rage of materials for optics applications. We routinely maintain parallelism and perpendicularity to .001" or better.
