High-precision optical metrology under demanding conditions

Optical applications in the field of aviation and aerospace are varied and complex. Reliability and robustness take top priority for mission components. Typical samples are aerial photograph lenses, lenses for space applications as well as complex high-resolution telescopes with multiple lenses.

With their universal design and versatile metrology options, the alignment turning stations – ATS – can process all mounted lenses and lens assemblies, including those with infrared and aspherical lenses or with mounted cells that cannot be glued. The choice always falls on the ATS when it comes to increasing efficiency. The ATS not only excels in mass production but also in the manufacture of customized lenses.
