Optical Glass Domes

Optical Glass Domes

CLZ Optical Co., Ltd.  we specialize in manufacturing glass optical Domes from customer supplied designs. Capable of creating sizes from 10mm to 124mm in Diameter. We are among the very few manufacturers in the world who possess this technology.


Optical domes are lenses with two concentric spherical surfaces. Sometimes they are being referred to as bent plan parallel plates. Consequently it is customary to define parallelism between two surfaces as the maximum thickness variation between the two surfaces. 

 

In perfect domes the convex radius is equal to the sum of the dome thickness and concave radius. Slight departures from that rule are sometimes desired. Optical domes are used in IR missiles, for underwater photography as part of protective case and as a part of sun tracking solar collectors.


Optical glass domes are widely used in various high-precision applications, especially in fields like underwater exploration, precision glass and optics, and advanced optical systems. These domes provide a protective barrier for sensitive optical equipment, ensuring clarity and minimal distortion while allowing seamless transmission of light. Whether you are searching for optical domes for specialized projects or require underwater glass domes designed for submersible vehicles, the quality of the dome plays a critical role in performance.


For underwater environments, underwater glass domes are engineered to withstand extreme pressure and water resistance, while maintaining optical clarity. These domes are often custom-made, using high-quality glass materials to ensure durability and precise optical properties. Such precision glass and optics elements are essential for underwater cameras, sensors, and other critical equipment.


If you're looking for a glass dome for sale, consider the specifications and optical precision required for your project. CLZ Optical Co., Ltd.  offer customizable options, allowing you to select the size, curvature, and material of the optical dome to fit your needs. This versatility ensures that optical domes can meet the demands of diverse industries, from underwater research to aerospace and scientific instrumentation.
