Optikron: Customized Micro-Optics, Assemblies, and Coatings

2. THE COMPANY OPTIKRON, your partner for micro-optics, assemblies and optical coatings was founded in 1992 in the optics and technology region of Jena. We are specializing in the efficient and flexible production of customized plano-optics with smallest dimensions, assembling of micro-optical groups and systems as well as developing and manufacturing customized optical coatings. Our competence, the high motivation of our staff and the technological possibilities enable us, with products of highest quality to contribute to powerful and innovative applications of our customers. The Know How and the experiences in the micro- and precision optics manufacturing are an solid basis for manufacturing complex optics with continuously highest precision in-house capabilities: • technological processes and technical equipment for the whole production process from raw glass block to finished plano-optics of high precision and micro optics • assembling and measuring laboratories • mechanical department for jigmaking and prototyping • coating department with latest coating machines for plasma-ion assisted evaporation processes

3. COMPETENCE Outstanding experiences in precision optics manufacturing which we bring into our products from protoype to the serial production. CUSTOMER ORIENTATION Customized products and inspection techniques, on-demand production and various delivery options. HIGH PRECISION Ensuring the high product quality by permanent process development, consistently quality assurance in each production step and inspection of each outgoing component. EFFICIENCY Powerful processes, flexible production possibilities and a cost-conscious organizational structure. FLEXIBILITY Realizing special product variations and realizing with customer coordinated processes.

4. QUALITY QUALITY ASSURANCE We are committed to highest quality requirements at our products and are conscious that our products are used in fastidious applications. Therefore it is important for us that everyone of our workforce themselves has a high consciousness about the needed accuracy in each production step and everyone has to work conscientiously in order to guarantee that only products with continuously high quality will be sent out to our customers. To ensure this quality commitment we develop and control operational sequences, examine the compliance with regulations and use modern test and measuring procedures in each production step. A final inspection of each single component before shipment is completing the process. 100% Inspection
