Precision Manufacturing Excellence: Sub-Arcsecond Roof Prisms for European Market
Client Requirement:
A European optical systems company sought a roof prism with an extremely tight 90° angle tolerance of just 2 arcseconds and a slender, elongated design. Most manufacturers could only achieve tolerances in arcminutes, but our HG optics, which Fuzhou-based optical processing facility specializes in sub-arcsecond precision, making this a standard production capability.
Key Challenges:
- Ultra-Tight Angular Tolerance (2 arcseconds) – Demands extreme precision in grinding and polishing.
- Slender Geometry – Increases difficulty in maintaining structural integrity during processing.
- Full-Aperture Inspection Requirement– Ensures no defects across the entire optical surface.
Our Solution:
As a leading optical substrate manufacturer in Fuzhou, we leveraged:
✔ Advanced CNC Grinding & Polishing Equipment – Ensuring micron-level accuracy.
✔ Highly Skilled Technicians – Years of experience in sub-arcsecond prism fabrication.
✔ Premium Polishing Compounds – Delivering superior surface quality (λ/10 or better).
Result:
✅ **Achieved 90° angle within 1-2 arcseconds (exceeding the 2″ requirement).
✅ **Perfect edge sharpness & wavefront accuracy – Critical for high-end applications.
✅ **Full-aperture inspection passed** – No surface defects detected.
Client Feedback:
Your team’s ability to consistently produce arcsecond-level prisms is exceptional. The precision and quality meet our most demanding optical system requirements.
Why Choose Us for High-Precision Prisms?
– Routine Production of 1-2 Arcsecond Tolerances – Not just a prototype capability.
