Zemax OpticStudio consulting

Zemax OpticStudio sequential and non-sequential models, merit functions, and tolerance budgets. Geometry export (STEP or IGES) for mechanical teams.

Published OpticStudio work has included merit-function optimization against a misplaced stop, a catalog-lens prototype held to a stated MTF, and custom extensions that score a lens for detection. The engineering record stays in the named tool.

For a fixed-fee review of an existing OpticStudio model, see the independent design review.

Typical problems

  • Image quality has to hold when a phone, barrel, or package is not perfectly seated.
  • A tolerance set has to be checked before a design is quoted for production.
  • Standard lens metrics do not say whether a sensor will detect a faint target.
  • A mechanical team needs STEP or IGES, not a screenshot of the prescription.

Deliverables

  • A native OpticStudio file
  • A merit function and a tolerance budget when the scope includes them
  • STEP or IGES geometry
  • A custom extension when the scoping note calls for one
  • A written report of assumptions, methods, results, and recommended next steps, for internal review or a vendor RFQ.

Tools: Zemax OpticStudio, plus custom programs and scripts.
