Optimax manufactures precision optical components for a wide variety of applications. Our strongest market segments for prototyping are aerospace and fundamental research and development. Our strongest markets for OEM production projects are semiconductor, military and medical instruments. Optimax has no market prejudice. We are dedicated to supporting projects that require:

• Small volume
• High quality
• Quick delivery

As applications become more demanding and optical engineers get more creative, requirements for optical components go beyond current manufacturing capabilities. Our master opticians love a good challenge. So at any given time, Optimax has about 6 edgy jobs in house, i.e. jobs for optical components that require manufacturing engineering to make the optics. Because we only make optical components all of our engineers – optical, mechanical, chemical, and industrial – focus their energy on how to make optics faster, cheaper and/or higher precision than we did yesterday. Recent research has yielded successes in:

• Characterization of new optical glasses and ceramics
• Chemo-mechanical processing
• VIBE patented polishing technology
• Fractional wave aspheres
• Conformal, toric and acylinder optics
• Wavefront correction optics

Optimax does not work through Reps, we strive to put optical engineers in touch with opticians. Please consider visiting our factory in upstate New York.
