This year, Precision Optical celebrates 67 years of pioneering in the optics industry. At the core of our success are our long-serving employees, some of whom have been with us for over 40 years. We blend their invaluable experience with the fresh energy of newer team members, continually fostering the next generation of our workforce. Our dedication extends beyond our company, enriching our community, customers, and the world at large.
Precision Optical is pleased to be exhibiting at this year’s SPIE Defense and Security Conference in National Harbor Maryland. Precision Optical will be exhibiting our new 10’ x 10’ display, Booth 640, from Tuesday, 04/28/26, through Thursday, 04/30/26. We will be showcasing many of our optical component products, and we look forward to collaborating with industry colleagues to discuss their custom optical system and component requirements within the defense market.
New services that we offer are 600mm aperture interferometry with 3-flat testing capability, along with IBS coatings. Our other services that we continue to promote and discuss include our metrology services, thin film coating services, assembly integration, catalog corner cubes, catalog alignment cubes, catalog right angle and porro prisms, large optical flats, mounted reference flats and high power optics capabilities.
In the Optics & Photonics industry we are known as the “Prism Specialists” and in 2025, we produced more custom designed lateral transfer prisms than ever before! A lateral transfer prism behaves functionally like a corner cube retroreflector, however it offers customizable beam displacement over customizable (and often smaller) clear apertures. This prism configuration in particular, brings forth multiple strengths within our core competencies: design support, custom prism configuration, ultra high accuracy, & custom thin film coatings. Please contact us at sales@precisionoptical.com if you have a need for a custom lateral transfer prism, or any custom prism configuration.
Representing Precision Optical at the expo will be Jeremy Gordon, VP of Sales & CRO, and Jim McClure, Sales Manager. We look forward to exhibiting at this event and discussing current and new opportunities with our customers in the defense and security applications market place. To set up an in-booth meeting at SPIE Defense + Security 2026 in National Harbor, please contact Jeremy Gordon jgordon@precisionoptical.com or Jim McClure jmcclure@precisionoptical.com. We hope to see you there!
