Precision Machining for Optical Components & Assemblies

Specialized component manufacturing for optical systems demands ultra-high accuracy, exceptional surface quality, and minimal contamination. Our precision machining services produce critical parts—including lens housings, prisms, sapphire windows, and fixture components—for digital cameras, scientific instruments, automotive lighting, and optical sensors, all with micron-level tolerances and polished finishes.

Advanced Machining Capabilities

• Multi-Axis CNC Machining
  Utilizes 3-, 4-, and 5-axis CNC turning and milling, hard-turning, drilling, threading, key-slotting, deep-hole boring, and large-format machining to fabricate complex structures with tight geometric tolerances.
• Precision Grinding & Honing
  Internal and external cylindrical grinding, centreless grinding, surface grinding, universal grinding, and honing achieve mirror-like finishes—a necessity for optical-grade parts.
• Electric Discharge & Wire-Cutting (EDM/Wire-EDM)
  Includes medium- and slow-wire EDM, as well as mirror-finish spark EDM—to produce fine contours, cavities, and sharp features in hard, brittle materials.
• 3D Printing & Mold Prototyping
  Rapid prototyping options in plastic, metal, and ceramics support optical tooling, lens molds, and fixturing needs.
• Industrial Ceramic, Gemstone & Quartz Material Processing
  Machine materials such as alumina ceramics, zirconia, silicon carbide, sapphires, rubies, and quartz glass in diameters from 1 mm to 600 mm—ideal for lenses, windows, prisms, and optical sensor components.
• Tungsten Carbide & Tooling Machining
  Complete workflow including sintering, rough machining, and finish grinding of carbide tooling used in precision molding and optical lens inserts.

Surface Finishing & Thermal Processing

• Thermal & Stress-Relief Treatments
  Includes vacuum quenching, solution treatment, stress-relieving, and precision aging—ensuring dimensional stability and durability in optical tooling and structural parts.
• Protective Coatings & Surface Treatments
  Anodizing, chemical conversion coatings, passivation, electroless nickel plating, chrome plating, dry‑film lubrication, etching, painting, and stress-crack mitigation—all tailored for optical applications sensitive to contamination or wear.
