Savvy Optics is dedicated to serving the optics community through optics standards, education and training, and down-to-earth lens and optical design. Practical solutions to today's optics problems. Their mission is to provide practical optical design and engineering services while facilitating commerce in the optics industry. They offer products and services aimed at reducing confusion, conflict, and waste in optical specifications and drawings. From designing practical optical systems for complex optical system problems to converting drawings into ISO 10110 format, from assisting with surface quality inspection and specifications management, to educational services, they help customers move from the design intent to manufacturable optics.
The “black box” from Savvy Optics is a black powder coat, cleanroom compatible viewing fixture which allows inspections in accordance with the MIL-PRF-13830B transmitted light method 2 and reflectance methods. It is consistent with the latest versions of the ANSI and ISO visibility inspection methods, which specify the required illuminance rather than wattage for the inspection areas. It is lightweight and fully assembled. Ships with 110/220V compatible NEMA 1-15 ungrounded power plug.
The Savvy Optics SP13 “Assembly inspection black box” accommodates the inspection of larger components and assemblies’ inspections in accordance with the MIL-PRF-13830B transmitted light method 2 and reflectance methods.
The SP15 “light bar” allows inspections in accordance with the MIL-PRF-13830B transmitted light method 1 in conjunction with the SP11D Black Box and SP13 “Assembly inspection black box”.
The inspection stations from Savvy Optics allow an objective measurement of scratch and dig visibility. They are available in manual or motorised configurations with various XY stage options. The motorised systems can be automated for “Autoscan” measurement scanning and automatic reporting.
The SavvyInspector® model SIL-4 is designed to measure scratch and dig of lenses to MIL spec. The SIL-4 uses a 1.4 megapixel camera and can evaluate lenses (e.g., plano-convex, 25 mm diameter R > 40 mm or equivalent surface slopes) to specifications down to 10-5.
