How a job runs
Every job moves through the same five operations, in order, under one roof.
Review
Drawing, material, tolerance, quantity and export control, reviewed before we quote. Controlled data moves only through a channel agreed with you.

Build
Optical and mechanical parts and assemblies made to your drawing: lenses, windows, domes and mirrors, and the mounts, cells and housings that hold them.

Inspect
Dimensional and optical inspection against the acceptance criteria you set, before the part moves on.

Qualify
Thermal vacuum and thermal cycling, run to the environment the article will see in service.

Ship
Packed, labeled and shipped to your requirements, with the inspection and test results you asked for.

Built to print
Seeker optics
Lenses, windows and domes built to your drawing.
Optomechanical assemblies
Mounts, cells and housings that hold alignment through launch.
Electro-optical subassemblies
Optics, detectors and their mechanics delivered as one unit.
Power electronics
Conversion and distribution boards for flight hardware.
Telescope optics
Mirrors and lenses for infrared and visible payloads.
Laser terminal optics
Front-end optics and mounts for optical crosslink terminals.
Precision structures
Benches and brackets machined to flight tolerances.
Beam director optics
Mirrors, mounts and windows built to your drawing.
EO/IR sensor optics
Lenses and assemblies for counter-drone tracking sensors.
Build-out targets
Targets, not demonstrated results
| Pressure | Ambient to 1×10⁻⁶ Torr under thermal vacuum |
|---|---|
| Temperature | −180 °C to +150 °C at the test article |
| Wavefront | Interferometric wavefront error to λ/20 RMS at 632.8 nm |
In development
Metal additive manufacturing held to flight standards: parameters controlled, every build inspected, every part traceable to the build that made it.
