Where to Buy Aspheric Optics

Lens processing capabilities of G&H include CNC generating, grinding, and polishing. We polish spherical, semi-spherical, and aspheric lenses. 5-axis grinding and polishing machines are utilized for manufacturing high precision aspheric surfaces on optical glass. Single point diamond turning is used for aspheric and diffractive optical elements.

G&H manufacture custom precision lenses for imaging, focusing, collimation and illumination, using standard polishing and grinding techniques, as well as single point diamond turning and MRF®.

We take a design-for-manufacture approach to lens production, facilitating the production of cost-effective, high quality custom precision lenses.

We produce metal mirrors including diamond turned aluminum and polished nickel-plated aluminum and beryllium aspheres. Format sizes up to 500 mm and shapes to include off-axis parabolas, aspheres, toroids, and flats. Metal mirrors can be light weighted and configured with integrated mounting features.

Ex-stock delivery of CNC precision polished plano-convex aspherical lenses made of N-BK7, high refractive index S-LAH64 glass or UV fused silica. EKSMA Optics can design and produce custom-tailored aspheres with anti-reflection coatings to suit your particular laser application.

Edmund Optics offers various aspheric lenses, including CNC polished lenses, infrared lenses with diffraction-limited performance, precision glass molded lenses, color-corrected lenses, condenser lenses and plastic molded lenses.

Precision aspheric lenses reduce visual defects and produce clearer images, making them ideal for many applications. In addition, because the surface of an aspheric lens is designed and formed to effectively reduce aberration in specific applications, custom aspheric lenses make flexible solutions to complex problems. At Shanghai Optics, we use two main methods to produce custom aspheric lenses: molding and traditional polishing with the state-of-the-art manufacturing and metrology equipment.

AMS Techno­logies offers a broad selection of aspheric optics for applications in the visible (VIS) and infrared (IR) wavebands such as collimation, focusing and coupling of fibers and lasers:

• molded-glass aspheric lenses at an affordable price while maintaining highest quality
• collimating aspheric lenses
• aspheric lens assemblies, standard or customized
• larger diameter aspheric lenses, CNC-polished, with/without AR-coating
• customization and design of new aspheric lenses

A cost-effective alternative to multi-lens systems, aspheric optics are commonly used to correct spherical aberrations that may hinder optical performance. Available from stock or as custom-made components, our wide range of high-quality aspheric optics include precision-grade, plastic, fire-polished and diamond-turned lenses.
