Our mission - Quality in less time at a lower cost

SpotOptics can provide solutions for quality control of almost any optical element (either in reflection or transmission) and lasers at UV, visible, NIR and LWIR (CO2) wavelengths. Our systems can be used both in the laboratory and in the production environments. 

Our instruments allow on-line optical metrology measurements respecting the production line constraints (speed and overall dimensions), at a reasonable cost without compromising the quality and precision of the final results.

We continuously develop new creative and advanced solutions for our customers. If you cannot find the solution to your optical problem among our standard products we will be happy to study a customized solution just for you.

Below is a list of optical parameters that can be measured using our instruments and a list of the optical test configurations covered with our instruments and software
