CMA specializes in solutions for difficult-to-produce optical mirrors and structures from carbon fiber composites. We produce precision CFRP mirrors for…

• Radio
• Sub-millimeter
• Mid-IR
• Near IR
• Visible
• Projection of UV Radiation
• And wavelengths for a wide variety of optical systems

OPTICAL PERFORMANCE

CMA has the capability to replicate to optical tolerances depending on the accuracy of the mandrels used to produce the CFRP mirror. Using a Zygo interferometer and 4D  4Sight software, we have demonstrated diffraction-limited and mandrel-limited performance.

ADVANTAGES

One of the advantages of composite mirrors is the ability to replicate any optical surface for which a forming tool (mandrel) can be produced. CMA can fabricate surface that are…

• Concave
• Convex
• Cylinders
• Spherical
• Aspheric
• Flat

CMA can build-to-print optics. We can also design a prototype custom designs.
We can offer support in the design of optical systems using ZEMAX Optical design software.
