Standard Coating for Plastic Optics

Standard Coating for Plastic Optics

Optical coatings are used to reflect, direct and filter light, prevent light reflection, protect surfaces, and improve the quality of optical components. SILVER Optics is your expert partner in the design, manufacture, and coating of polymer-based optical components and systems.

Our experts will provide you with a wide range of services:

• Optimization of your construction element design for more cost-efficient serial coating
• Selection of suitable materials and processes
• Feasibility studies
• Development of optimized coatings and coat designs according to customer requirements
• Process optimization ranging from cleaning and coating right through to packaging
• Development of suitable measurement and testing procedures according to ISO, DIN, or MIL

We will also gladly provide job-specific coatings of your substrates and offer our experience for the optimization of all coating-related processes. Each standard technology can be the basis of a custom-tailored solution according to your requirements.
