PG&O Provides Affordable, On-Shore, High-Volume, Precision Scribing on Plain and Coated Optics

Offering affordable, high-volume precision scribing and cutting services of plain and coated optics

February 25, 2015 - Santa Ana, CA - Precision Glass & Optics (PG&O - www.pgo.com), a U.S.-based optics company celebrating its 30th anniversary, offers affordable, high-volume precision scribing and cutting services of plain and coated optics. To meet the growing demands of domestic and international customers, PG&O provides cost-effective thin film coatings and precision cutting and scribing to extremely tight specifications. With the companys half-million dollar in-house glass inventory, and thirty years of expertise, PG&O delivers high-volume optics faster, and at a lower cost-per-item, than even competing Asian manufacturers.


President Dan Bukaty, Jr. notes, "We recently manufactured large quantities of 10 mm² D 263 at .3 mm thickness with a broadband anti-reflective (AR) coating on both sides. We shipped 100,000 of these parts per week for several weeks at the low cost of 50 cents per piece. This project highlights PG&Os ability to turn around precision optics rapidly, and deliver high-quality, high-volume, two-sided coated parts at pricing that our Asian competitors cannot meet."

With a 72" state-of-the-art coating chamber and a large, in-house glass substrates inventory, PG&O also provides quick turnaround on a wide array of flats, prisms, and beamsplitters. Moreover, the company offers custom optical solutions and assemblies manufactured to rigid specifications.

A full range of cost-effective thin film filters feature heat resistant, anti-reflective, dichroic, dielectric, and metal for commercial and custom applications. Highly precise optical coatings can be designed and specified up to 24-inches diameter to meet exact angle and wavelength requirements for custom applications. Applications include medical, display, imaging, projection, defense, aerospace, scanning, and industrial instrumentation.

PRECISION GLASS & OPTICS - www.pgo.com - Celebrating the companys 30th year, PG&O delivers high quality, precision glass, optics, and optical coatings for a variety of applications. The company has an extremely large inventory of glass products and a full optical fabrication shop to provide advanced optical coatings and manufacturing large mirror blanks. Other services include CNC machining, polishing, slicing, sawing, scribing, grinding, edging, assembly, and more. With three large coating chambers, and an expert, in-house engineering staff, our cost-effective and reliable optics and advanced thin film coatings are ideal for military, aerospace, biomedical, imaging, laser, digital cinema, solar markets, and more.
