Optical Mass Production

Scalable Optical Manufacturing for High-Performance Systems

 

 

At Yighen Ultra Precision, we understand that scaling from prototype to volume production requires more than just technical expertise—it demands consistency, efficiency, and total process control. That’s why we’ve established our own medium-scale optical molding and assembly facility in Dongguan, China: Yiguang Technology, the dedicated manufacturing arm of Yighen. This factory is fully owned and operated by Yighen, ensuring seamless quality management and responsive production support throughout the entire product lifecycle.

 

Optical Mass Production Services

 

Our mass production services cover a wide range of optical components and integrated modules, built to meet the exacting demands of global OEMs in sectors such as medical imaging, sensing, AR/VR, automotive, industrial metrology, and more.

We offer:

  • High-volume injection molding of optical-grade plastics using precision single-point diamond-turned mold inserts.

  • Multi-cavity mold design and fabrication for efficient cycle times and cost savings.

  • Cleanroom assembly & optical bonding for lenses, prisms, filters, and complete lens modules.

  • Optical coating (AR, HR, beamsplitter, IR-blocking) for plastic and glass optics.

  • Integrated module assembly including illumination systems, lens barrels, TIR structures, and mechanical housing.

 

 

In-House Manufacturing Capabilities

Unlike many suppliers who rely on third-party vendors, Yighen’s Dongguan facility is vertically integrated, with end-to-end control over tooling, injection, coating, and assembly.

Key Assets:

  • Precision Injection Molding Lines:
    Class 100,000 cleanroom molding workshop equipped with vertical and horizontal injection molding machines suitable for PMMA, PC, COP, OKP, ZEONEX, and other high-end optical resins.

  • Diamond Turned Mold Insert Fabrication:
    Using our Toshiba ULC-100F(S) and ULC-100D(S) diamond turning systems, mold inserts can achieve up to Ra 0.001μm and P-V ≤ 0.01μm, ensuring ultra-clear replication fidelity.

  • Advanced Ultra-Precision Grinding and Polishing:
    Toshiba ULG-100D HYBS3 and NanoTech 650FG enable precision finishing of mold parts and optical inserts with Ra ≤ 3.0nm, maintaining production-grade consistency.

  • Modular Assembly Lines:
    Flexible assembly cells for various lens formats—SWIR lenses, fisheye assemblies, telecentric lenses, and more. Integrated opto-mechanical testing ensures each product meets its performance spec before delivery.

 

 

Optical Components We Mass Produce

Our factory supports mass production of both standard and custom optical components, including:

  • Freeform Lenses

  • Aspheric Lenses

  • Plano-Convex & Double-Convex Lenses

  • Fresnel Lenses

  • Cylindrical & Achromatic Lenses

  • TIR Lenses & Light Pipes

  • Optical Prisms & Windows

  • Beam Splitters & Filters

  • Infrared Optics (SWIR/MWIR/LWIR)

  • Laser Collimation Optics

  • Medical Device Optics (Endoscopy, OCT, PCR, Imaging)

 

 

Quality Assurance & Optical Metrology

All mass-produced optics undergo strict in-process QC, final inspection, and full traceability across each batch. Our metrology lab includes:

  • Interferometers (Zygo-style) for wavefront and form deviation

  • White light interferometers for surface roughness (Ra) inspection

  • Contact profilometers, CMMs, and digital microscopes

  • Optical axis centering, MTF test benches, and focal length measurement

Our team performs full SPC (Statistical Process Control) and CPK analysis to ensure every lot meets customer-defined tolerances.

 

 

Logistics & Supply Chain Support

With well-established logistics channels and real-time ERP tracking, we support on-time delivery to North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Yighen offers:

  • Batch manufacturing and Kanban support

  • Custom labeling, barcode traceability

  • Consignment inventory (optional)

  • Technical feedback loop for continuous optimization
