Why choose an athermalized lens
Athermalized imaging lenses are designed to operate over extreme changes in temperature, whilst minimising the performance changes that often occur with a standard off-the-shelf lens. Because the...
Custom imaging lenses
Over the last 25 years we have worked closely with customers to design high performance lenses optimised to their application. These custom lenses have included production quantities of fixed focus,...
Selecting suitable optical materials for space applications
A key consideration when choosing optics for use in space is radiation resistance. Exposure to high-energy radiation progressively reduces the transmittance of standard optical glass. Adding cerium...
Vision lens for nuclear plant hot zones
Optimised for a ¼-inch format camera sensor – our new 10x non browning zoom lens can withstand exposure to accumulated radiation of over a million Gy. This enables long term operation in nuclear...
Spotlight on satellite lenses
Lenses used in satellite applications must meet certain basic requirements to survive the harsh conditions in space. In a recent interview with SatMagazine, our Managing Director - Mark Pontin...
High resolution lens for radiotherapy
The demand from medical technology companies for state-of-the-art optics to help prevent illness, and to detect and treat it at an early stage has grown significantly. Read our new case study that...
Custom optomechanical design solutions
Nearly 3 decades of optical and mechanical design experience, in-depth knowledge of nuclear, space, aviation and industrial vision sectors plus customer-centric approach set us apart from other...
Optical module expands satellite lens versatility.
Many thanks for the editorial team at SatMagazine for reporting how a unique optical module Resolve Optics developed for ultra-high-definition video camera specialists – Sen is enabling them to use...
Should I choose an aspheric or spheric lens for my vision application?
In recent years there has been a growing trend towards use of aspheric elements in optical designs. Aspheric optics can be a great choice as they help to reduce spherical aberrations. The problem is...
