Polymer optics - Polymermedics

WHY DO COMPANIES CHOOSE US?

1Medical quality standards. Our background, with 40 years of experience in medical moulding, allowed us to build a clean and robust production in accordance with the highest quality standards. This allows us to guarantee that all processes will be as steady as clockwork and your polymer optics won’t be contaminated with any dust or debris.
2All around service provider. Starting with optical design and engineering services, that our Germany-based part of the team will provide, and ending with automated packaging of the manufactured optical components – you will have access to a full production cycle of polymer optics under one roof.
3Variety of capabilities. We produce both thick-walled plastic optics, as well as precise micro-optics that weigh less than 1 gram and has a 2 micron surface.
4Exceptional competence. We can manage projects of any complexity since we are constantly investing in R&D. For example, among the latest projects our group of companies have undertaken, are holographic microstructures, and a lotus-shaped lens with a hydrophobic surface.
5Custom optics solutions. We work with custom designed injection moulded polymer optics of complex forms and geometries, producing spherical, aspherical, freeform, and prism polymer optics, diffractive and fresnel lenses, toroid, cylindrical, parabolic surfaces and many more.

Polymermedics is a unique combination of 40 years experience in medical injection moulding and expertise in high-precision polymer optics

OUR OPTICAL CAPABILITIES

Polymer optics development. Our engineers can optimize already existing components, as well as help to build one from scratch. We will guide you through the whole plastic optics design and development process, starting from 3D construction and material selection, to feasibility studies, risk analysis and photometric simulations. This will provide you with the assurance you need, to know that your design can be – and will be – manufactured in serial production.

Polymer optics tooling. Ultra-precise tools manufacturing and prototyping with optical surface accuracies. Depending on the geometry of the mould, we can reach a surface roughness of 2nm with a shape accuracy of a few microns. You will know for sure that your optics will perform exactly as you planned.

Polymer optics manufacturing. From micro-moulding to high volume injection moulding on machines with 25 – 800 tones clamping forces. Fully automated robotic systems, process control system and 24/7 production in a controlled area. Antireflection coatings (AR), highly reflective coatings (mirrors) and filter coatings. You will get what you expect – cost-effective reliable solution. Click to find out more about our injection moulding services. (ADD LINK)
