Opto-Mechanical

Structural integrity meets optical precision — mounts, barrels and structures that hold alignment through environment.

What We Do

Service Overview

Precise optics fail when their mechanical mounts move. AISYS designs opto-mechanical structures that hold alignment under vibration, thermal cycling, shock and pressure — from compact lens barrels to large telescope truss assemblies — ensuring your optical performance survives its operational environment.

Six sub-disciplines below cover barrel design, athermalization, structural analysis, kinematic mounts, telescope structures and production drawing packages.
