Watch the videos below to view just a few of the jobs our APD team works on everyday. You will be able to see OptiPro's lens grinding, polishing, and metrology equipment in action as we take a job from a concept to a solution. If you think one of our optical fabrication machines might be the right fit for your application and would like to learn more, feel free to contact APD.
From Concept to Solution - Developing an Ogive
This video portrays the process of developing an ogive, utilizing the knowledge of OptiPro's APD team and the vast capability of OptiPro's optical fabrication equipment. Video clips of OptiPro's UFF™ machine show finishing of both the inside and outside of the ogive, and OptiPro's eSX 200 optical grinding machine helps grind away the glass to form an ogive. The final product is a finished ogive...from concept to solution.
5-Axis Non-Contact Measurement of Conformal Arch
5-axis, non-contact measurement of a glass conformal arch using OptiPro's UltraSurf™. UltraSurf™ is a high precision, 5-axis, non-contact metrology system capable of measuring plano, spherical, aspheric, and freeform optical surfaces without touching them. The conformal arch was manufactured using OptiPro's eSX 200 optical grinding machine and UltraForm Finishing (UFF) machine.
