New coating systems
27 August 2015
During the past two years Laser Components has invested heavily in new coaters and modernised its systems.
The coating systems are, for the most part, fully automated, computer controlled, and equipped with an online monitoring system that monitors the layer composition during the coating process. This ensures a high level of process safety. Coatings can be manufactured precisely and designs reproduced exactly.
The company coats glass and fused silica substrates from a few millimeters in size to a maximum size of Ø400 mm. Small and very large quantities can be produced at a low cost.
Internal quality assurance is guaranteed using various measuring systems. The centricity of a lens can be determined and the radius of curvature and shape accuracy interferometrically measured. Damage threshold tests at 1064nm can also be carried out in house.
