Optical and Mechanical Design

There is no substitute for a thorough understanding of the fundamentals. This is as true for optical and mechanical design as it is for sports.

At AOS, all of our design is guided by the philosophy that the best design comes from a complete understanding of both the problem and the physical and technological principles that underlie a successful solution. We work with our customers through all phases of the development cycle from design through prototyping to final manufacturing and assembly.

AOS has the in-house design expertise you need for a successful product. Having both optical and mechanical design under one roof allows AOS to provide an integrated opto-mechanical solution to your problem. Extensive metrology capabilities give you the confidence you need. 

Consider AOS as your solution provider for:

• Design verification of an existing optical design
  AOS can provide an independent analysis of your pre-existing design, to ensure that it will meet your needs.
• Design for manufacture
  The unique combination of both design and production allows AOS to produce systems that work as both software and hardware.
• Tolerance analysis
  Will the system work in the field? A complete tolerance analysis is a necessary component of producing a successful, cost-effective system.
• Design for imaging and illumination (non-imaging) systems, including:
  • Beam shaping optics
  • Laser and LED systems

  AOS scientists and engineers have experience with the major optical (CODE V^®, OSLO^®, DIFFSYS^®, ZEMAX^®) and mechanical (Pro/E^®, AutoCAD^®, Mastercam^®, SolidWorks^®) design programs. More importantly, AOS knows how to use these tools to get you to the solution you need.
