They deepen their Optic market penetration by broadening their technology base and adding leading-edge surface and wavefront metrology.
Posted: June 23, 2015
With the June 8, 2015 acquisition of Engineering Synthesis Design Inc. (ESDI; Tucson, Arizona), the Mahr Group (Providence RI) continues to pursue its market penetration into the Optic industry by broadening its technology base and adding leading-edge surface and wavefront metrology from ESDI, an innovator for Fizeau-Interferometers with its Dimetior and Intellium product series that ideally complement the Mahr product portfolio.
Mahr, sometimes referred to as “The Application Specialist,” has completed product developments over the past two years of the MarSurf WM 100, MarSurf LD130/ 260 Aspheric and MarForm MFU 200 Aspheric 3D solutions for measuring contour and roughness parameters on aspheres and freeform optics. Furthermore, a prototype of the Tilted-Wave-Interferometer MarSurf TWI 60 was presented to the market. It was one of the three finalists of SPIE’s (International Society for Optics and Photonics) 2015 PRISM Awards, and winner of the German AMA (Association for Sensors and Measurement) 2014 Innovation award.
Based on its worldwide active sales and service network, the Mahr Group can offer even more attractive measurement solutions for spheres, aspheres, freeform optics and other optical components.
