OPTICAL ASSEMBLY
Rainbow Research Optics, Inc. (RROI) offers optical assembly for customers requiring a more robust mechanical interface between optical elements. Some Optical Assemblies also act as a relay within a larger optical system. These relay systems are often referred to as opto-mechanical sub-assemblies.
RROI adheres to strict fabrication, coating, test, and assembly controls as part of its ISO 9001:2015program. Optical and mechanical tolerances are reviewed with an eye toward the overall performance of the finished optical system. Thermal, mechanical, and light fluxfactors are given due consideration in the system design review.
