Contract Testing

Due to the stringent demands of our own production regarding highly reliable and most precise measurements of dimensions and other parameters relevant for fabrication of precision optics, Schneider-Kreuznach carries a broad range of highly accurate measuring equipment. These measuring systems have been designed and built in house or were bought in from leading suppliers. A large portion of this measuring equipment is now available to our customers for contract testing.

Our measuring service offering currently comprises:

  • MTF contract testing of Schneider-Kreuznach or third party lenses

  • Measurement of reflectance and color coordinates of AR coated lens elements

Further measuring services that can be performed by our measuring equipment are available on request.

Dynamic planning of resources allows us to keep cycle times for contract testing orders short and thus comply with the demands of our customers.

Apart from premium metrology and resources available on short notice our customers in particular benefit from the know-how and long standing experience of our optical metrology lab staff.  

Depending on the type of requested contract testing we need additional information on the test specimen and desired test conditions. Customers can provide this information in the most efficient way by filling in and submitting our dedicated request or order forms. Please notice also the details regarding spectral weighting if you are interested in MTF contract testing.

Please print out the form that matches your testing requirements, fill it in and fax or mail it to the attention of the contact person mentioned below.
