Custom fabricated sapphire lenses and windows that provide front surface protection in demanding environments like agriculture, has been introduced by Meller Optics. Sapphire lenses and windows protect drone vision systems and sensors.
Meller Sapphire Optics for drones feature Mohs 9 hardness and withstand fast moving dirt, sand, chemicals, heat to 1,000 degrees Celsius and 69 MPa pressure for protecting vision systems and sensors, operating in harsh environments.
Combining durability and high clarity, they are offered as lenses, windows, and domes that exhibit up to 85% transmission from the UV to IR, with coatings for enhanced transmission to better than 99%.
Manufactured to customer specifications, Meller Sapphire Optics for Drones can be made in many shapes and sizes from 6.35mm to 254mm O.D. with varying wall thicknesses and surface finishes from 60-40 scratch-dig, flatness held to 0.5 fringes of HeNe and parallelism from 20 to 2 arc/secs., depending upon configuration. Meller is ITAR Registered and DFARS/NIST compliant.
