Silver Off-Axis Parabolic Mirrors are reflective optical components designed to focus or collimate light without introducing spherical aberration. By using an off-axis segment of a parent parabola, these mirrors allow unobstructed beam paths, making them ideal for compact and high-performance optical systems.
Band Optics manufactures Silver Off-Axis Parabolic Mirrors for demanding applications where alignment accuracy, surface quality, and broadband reflectivity are critical. Silver coatings are especially valued for their high reflectance in the visible and infrared regions. All production follows a custom optics wholesale model, ensuring flexibility in geometry, coating, and tolerance control.
Customers working with Band Optics through www.band-optics.com benefit from direct engineering communication and scalable manufacturing support.
Silver Off-Axis Parabolic Mirrors preserve the ideal parabolic focusing performance while enabling folded or offset optical layouts. This design improves system integration and reduces stray light.
Silver coatings offer excellent reflectivity from the visible to mid-infrared ranges. Protective overcoats can be applied to enhance durability without compromising optical performance.
As a custom optics wholesale manufacturer, Band Optics supports a wide range of parent focal lengths, off-axis distances, and clear apertures to match system-level optical designs.
Mirror substrates are shaped using high-precision CNC equipment, followed by advanced polishing processes to achieve low surface roughness and accurate parabolic profiles.
Each Silver Off-Axis Parabolic Mirror undergoes interferometric testing to verify surface figure and slope error. This ensures reliable focusing and collimation performance.
Band Optics supports prototype development, small-batch production, and volume manufacturing. All workflows are optimized for custom optics wholesale supply chains. More details are available at www.band-optics.com.
