PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
BERN OPTICS ANNOUNCES CUSTOM MICROMINIATURE AND SUBMILLIMETER OPTICS AS SMALL AS 0.2 MM FOR USE IN PRECISION ANALYTICAL & MEDICAL DEVICES
WESTFIELD, MA, USA, June 17, 2011 - Bern Optics, Inc. today announced the availability of custom optical elements with dimensions as small as 0.20 mm. They can be custom engineered, ground and polished to micron tolerances in a wide variety of configurations, including lenses, prisms, axicons, filters, windows, domes, and mirrors, as well as special components with combinations of plano, spherical and cylindrical surfaces.
Typically created from optical and filter glasses, these tiny elements - some as small as a grain of salt - can be produced to submillimeter dimensions, with or without specialized coatings, to meet the specific requirements of the application.
These precision custom optical parts are ideal for use in a variety of instruments where small size is key. As a full-service optics manufacturer, Bern Optics also provides secondary assembly of components like doublets and triplets, multielement prisms, mounting optics in cells, and other custom assemblies.
Founded in 1989 by Bernd Gottschalk, Bern Optics, Inc. is fully integrated to convert raw glass into highly accurate, exotically coated optical components, from prototype to volume production. As one of the premier independent manufacturers of precision optics, the company has consistently remained in the forefront of micro-miniature optics manufacture and fabrication.
