Are you looking for a reliable partner in optical lens design? Do you need custom optics designed for manufacturability? Shanghai Optics has a strong engineering team with deep knowledge of optical design and manufacturing processes. We serve companies across a wide range of industries, including pharmaceutical, biomedical, life science, industrial, consumer and defense. We invite you to work with us to bring your optical products to market as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.
Our Top Optical Design Engineers can develop optical systems that will cater to your specifications.
We offer ODM optical design service. Many of our customers rely on us to provide design support and manufacturing for lenses while retaining their own branding. For example, a home planetarium projector manufacturer approached us with a request to reverse engineer a high-quality projection lens. Our engineering team not only recreated the lens but also enhanced its optical performance. The customer retained their branding and successfully brought the improved projector to market.
When designing optical components, it’s not enough to make the prototype work; the optical solution must meet feasibility criteria for production at scale. Selecting a company for optical design requires partnering with experts who understand both design and manufacturability. At Shanghai Optics, we excel in optical lens design, but more importantly, we are an optical manufacturer. Our engineers use the right lens design process, combining deep knowledge of manufacturing processes, limitations, and cost considerations.
Are you an OEM in need of optics design assistance? We can help you optimize your lens design for manufacturability (DFM), making your lens product more feasible and affordable for production. Our DFM input covers material selection, tolerance analysis, performance evaluation, and more. You’ll receive a design with clear specifications and low manufacturing costs, meeting your customer’s objectives without over-engineering.
One common challenge in optical design is dealing with aberrations, particularly spherical aberration. Aberrations occur when light rays from a point source don’t converge at a single point after passing through a lens. These can be analyzed using spot diagrams or ray trace curves, which help identify and measure the aberrations. Aberration theory allows these imperfections to be broken down into components, making it easier to diagnose and correct the issues by understanding which parts of the optical elements contribute to the problem.
Our optical engineers are committed to helping you design products that not only meet or exceed your requirements but are also cost-effective to produce.
Our optical engineers understand your need to design products that meet or exceed requirements while being cost-effective to produce. We look forward to partnering with you, asking the right questions to develop an optical design feasibility study and providing estimates for both prototype and volume production.
