Precision Glass for Machine Vision – custom precision glass machined to drawing with inspection reports. No minimum order; DFM review included with every RFQ.
What precision glass for machine vision actually buys from a glass shop: camera windows, ring-light diffusers, calibration plates. The requirement underneath is flat, coated protection windows that do not distort imaging.

DFM notes from the shop floor
The shop-floor rules that matter here:
- Over-specification is the quiet budget killer: a 20/10 scratch-dig face costs roughly three times an 80/50 face, so grade each surface individually.
The full rules live in our tolerance design guide and holes and edges design guide.
Who orders this
Orders for precision glass for machine vision cluster in ccd inspection equipment (CCD cover plates, reference grids, stage glass); mems devices (cap wafers, TGV substrates, motion-sensor lids); scientific instruments (reference flats, cells, prism mounts, stage inserts).

Buyer questions, answered
How fast can prototypes ship?
Machined prototypes ship in 5 – 10 working days. Coated or bonded parts add 1 – 2 weeks depending on queue slots.
What files do you need for a quote?
A dimensioned PDF plus DXF or STEP geometry. If only a sketch exists, our drawing review service formalizes it before quoting.
Do parts ship with inspection data?
Dimensional reports, surface certificates and material certs per melt are available; specify the level on the RFQ.
What do machine vision programs usually order?
Camera windows, ring-light diffusers, calibration plates. Typical spec: TWD < lambda/4, AR both faces.
