SAPPL comprehensive line of services includes generating, shaping and polishing components; creating electro-optic and opto-mechanical components and assemblies; designing and depositing optical coatings; producing mass-quantity OEM components and performing extensive testing to ensure the highest quality components.
Integrated optical and mechanical design, fabrication, assembly and optical test in SAPPL to assure the fewest delays in development and successful delivery of your hardware.
Our engineers work closely with optical designers to assist in balancing trade-offs between manufacturability, cost and performance during material selection and tolerancing phases of the design. The same engineering goes into design of meaningful acceptance test criteria for your project. The minimum specifications of our custom-manufactured lenses, is as below.
