Achromats (achromatic Lenses)

At Befort, spherical precision optics pass through the hands of qualified specialists. They work with a sure instinct and stateoftheart technology. The machine processing of each surface is done on CNC grinding and polishing machines. We produce spherical precision lenses from optical glass, quartz glass and radiationresistant materials with diameters from 3 mm to 130 mm and a curvature radius from 1.18 mm to plane. We make individual lens elements, achromatic systems, concave mirrors, cylinder lenses and other precisely fitting glass geometries to suit your specific application.

Achromatic systems consist of two single lenses of different refraction that are cemented together. This avoids the inherent achromatic aberrations of single lenses that lead to blurred or distorted images. We produce these highquality optics with diameters of 10 50 mm and focal lengths of 20 250 mm. We supply black anodized aluminium mounts with all achromatic systems on request.

Reflectionreducing coatings increase the light transmission of optical systems. This is particularly important for the light intensity of multilens optical systems such as objectives. Another benefit of antireflection coatings is their capability to strongly reduce scattered light losses between the lenses. Our product portfolio covers single and multiplelayer antireflection coatings, antireflection coatings for laser applications and coatings for applications in ultraviolet (UV), visual (VIS) and infrared (IR).

Based on the longstanding experience in the field of industry optics, Befort is your optimal partner for the new development and production of customer specific optics and mechanooptic systems. Our experts will find and realize the best solution for your optical problem. Solutions may be based on a variety of technologies, such as spherical, refractive optics, but also freeform optics, micro optics, diffractiveaspheric or plastic optics. Furthermore, we integrate electronics, sensor technology, controls and image processing jointly with external partners.
