Compensating the finest glass tolerances with melt-fit

Whether in consumer electronics, industry or science, achieving the highest image quality and optical measurement accuracy requires tighter control over glass tolerances than standard manufacturing can provide. While software-based corrections can compensate for certain image defects, such as vignetting and distortion, these approaches have systematic limitations and lead to increased image noise or reduced image resolution. In short, the image quality worsens.

Excelitas’ advanced melt-fit process addresses these challenges by precisely optimizing mechanical and optical parameters based on the actual characteristics of each glass melt. This approach enables exceptional color correction, delivering high-resolution images with outstanding uniformity and minimal variation from sample to sample.
