Raytheon ELCAN Optical Technologies designs and manufactures custom, precision optics for the commercial marketplace.
- Design-to-Spec
- Design for Manufacturability
- Prototypes
- Production Quantities
Dynamic and Competitive Environments: Market spaces with short product life cycles, like the medical market, require fully integrated suppliers such as Raytheon ELCAN that have the ability to take a product from concept to full-scale production in a short period of time. This integration must also include quality and process controls that streamline regulatory qualification.
Demanding Design Requirements: Precision optical assemblies are required to meet increasingly complex design specifications. Optical systems may be required to perform under extreme temperature conditions, fit within a particularly small physical area, or achieve near-perfect resolution. Raytheon ELCAN’s experience in the design and manufacture of cutting-edge systems underlies its reputation as a leader in the precision optics industry.
Technological Advances: Rapid technological advances, such as improved sensor and digital interface capabilities, will simultaneously increase the demand for similarly advanced optical systems. Raytheon ELCAN remains on the cutting-edge of technology developments investing in ongoing R&D as well as the human infrastructure of scientists and engineers to meet customer requirements for precision optical assemblies.
Raytheon ELCAN has experience in the following commercial markets:
- Medical
- Business & Entertainment
- Industrial: Non-destructive testing, machine vision and process control applications that require precision, and often custom, optics include:
- Industrial/material microscopy
- Machine Vision
- Surface analysis
- Industrial inspection
- Test and measurement
- Quality control/quality assurance
- X-ray inspection
- Semiconductor inspection
