Custom Moulded Aspheric Lenses and polished BK7 lenses are use within Weapon sights.
Our aspheric lenses are used to correct optical aberrations (where the converging light from a lens does not have a common focal point, resulting in a distorted image) in laser focusing and imaging. Traditional spherical lenses cannot collimate light effectively and even smallest of angles of incidence can produce aberrations.
This can mean that several combined optical components may be required to get the desired result. The non-spherical surface of an aspheric lens allows a single component to effectively focus or collimate even highly divergent emissions, potentially replacing a multi-lens system with a single aspheric lens. Saving weight and space.
Therefore Aspheric Lenses that are moulded are ideal for use within Gun Sights, Military Scopes, Laser Holographics, and Laser Range finding applications.
