Build-to-PrintReynard Corporation, a leading global supplier of optical components to the aerospace, commercial and military markets, with over 30 years of manufacturing experience, is happy to meet your needs for build-to-print optics. We pride ourselves on our company's engineering talent, manufacturing expertise, in-house fabrication capabilities, and state-of-the-art optical design software, using this combination to support a wide range of build-to-print optical specifications. Provide your build-to-print specifications for a fixed price quotation, whether your need is for a specialty window, mirror, optical filter, beamsplitter, prism or any other precision optical component. Click here to request a quote and you can expect a response in 1 – 3 days. Built To Print Optics – Fabrication Capabilities:Reynard commonly works with the following substrates (or you can specify another type or furnish your own substrate):
Reynard's Fabrication Department has three 48" and a 96" Continuous Polishing Lap (CP) polisher for massive optical fabrication and two Haas CNC mills for production items. Our capabilities include Cutting (diamond saw cutting for parts from less than one millimeter to over two feet in diameter); Grinding (for parts from less than one millimeter to over three feet); Polishing (equipment capable of producing 1/20 wave elements on part sizes over three feet in diameter); Edging (to an accuracy of a few ten thousandths of an inch on lenses, mirrors and windows); Beveling (bevels down to a few thousandths of an inch); Core Drilling and Shaping. Build To Print Optics – Coating Services:Reynard Corporation provides an extensive range of custom thin film coating services for your built-to-print optical components including anti reflection (AR) coatings, conductive coatings, metallic coatings and dielectric coatings. Thin film coatings are extremely thin layers of materials (such as TiO2, SiO2, ITO, MgF2, gold, aluminum etc…), which can be applied to the surface of a substrate like glass, metal or IR material, to effect a change in its optical properties. Effects such as reflection, refraction, anti reflection and conductivity can be produced and modified by expert calibration of the number of layers and the respective thicknesses of the thin film coatings in relation to the incidental wavelengths of light. Our thin film coating facility has 21 vacuum chambers, ranging from an 18" bell jar to a 54" fully automatic box coater, all in a 4000 square foot Class 1000 clean room. Processes include electron beam, ion assisted and resistance source deposition. We have the capability to coat virtually any size and shape up to and including substrates 50" in diameter. Coating materials used include:
Build To Print Optics - Photolithography:Reynard Corporation can produce custom photolithographic patterns for your built-to-print optical components. Patterns as small as 8 microns in size can be produced on substrates up to 14" in diameter. These photolithographic patterns can be made from such dielectric coating materials as Quartz, Titanium Dioxide and Sapphire along with standard metallic materials like Chrome, Gold and Aluminum. Photolithographic patterns are used for such applications as: optical targets, alignment patterns, quality control patterns, encoder disks, pin holes, optical slits, angle measuring devices and comparison filters. Inspection and Quality Control: All parts are inspected by our careful quality control inspectors. Reynard operates per Military Specification Mil-I-45208A. From incoming shipments to final inspection, the quality of material received and shipped to our customers is measured and recorded. Our quality control manager reports directly to the President of Reynard Corporation. Equipment used by our inspectors includes: Also See QC Standards for more detail
