Precision Optics, Aspheres, & Cylinders

Torrent Photonics was one of the first to manufacture CNC machine aspheres, adding to our in-house conventional and molding capabilities. We have earned a reputation as a cutting-edge producer of aspheric lenses, capable of achieving geometries most don’t consider possible with our recent addition of 200mm asphere and cylinder manufacturing capabilities. Custom aspheres, spherical optics, and cylinders are manufacturable in standard glass materials as well as IR materials such as chalcogenide, IRG, Mg2F2, and Silicone.

Torrent uses CNC manufacturing coupled with conventional proprietary methods to produce the highest quality glass cylinders in the market efficiently. With an extensive tooling library, Torrent can reduce total program charges by nearly eliminating almost all tooling charges, and our techniques are conducive to both prototype and production quantities.

As a world leader in manufacturing custom glass lenses, Torrent Photonics meets your specifications for prototyping spherical lenses through CNC and conventional methods. With our origins in making test plates, we have developed an unmatched reputation in the industry for producing high-quality spherical lenses for clients like you, who have customers demanding high quality.
