Success in machining components for opto-electromechanical designs requires understanding of the final assembly.  The components must work flawlessly with their mechanical counterparts, but the precision and integrity of the mounting surfaces for lens, mirrors, and prisms can be no less than perfect.

Dimensional characteristics such as ovality, concentricity, cylindricity, run-out and surface finish are critical for the proper fit and bonding process of optics.  GTI understands that the precision tolerances of these surfaces apply after plating… yet another important aspect of machining components for optical assemblies.  Understanding plating thickness buildup is key to knowing where to machine the part’s dimensions within or even outside the tolerance range.

Whether the application is devices for optical measurement, digital imaging, defense/security or life sciences, GTI can meet your requirements.
