(pressebox) (Olching, 06.05.2011) Increasing demands on laser optics have brought about improvements in the quality and precision of the raw substrate. To meet these demands the production of spherical lenses has become one of LASER COMPONENTS' core competencies. In Germany we produce customer-specific prototypes and series. Through this locational advantage, delivery times remain short even at attractive prices. In addition to customer-specific lenses, we also have optical components in stock that are available for sale on our web shop.
