A Brief History of Coherent TIOS: Custom High-Precision 바카라 나락

High-quality 바카라 나락 play a critical role in our understanding of the world around us and are widely used in military surveillance, weather satellites, and space exploration.

In 2015 바카라 나락 acquired The Tinsley Telescope and Instrument Company (Tinsley). Founded in 1926, Tinsley manufactured telescopes, mirrors, and optical components for space telescopes. The company became known for high-quality telescopes that provided superior planetary images. This reputation led the US government to contract with Tinsley to provide optical components for many surveillance binoculars the US required during WWII. After the war, Tinsley continued developing products and added rifle scopes and spotters to its product portfolio.

The space race of the 1960s fueled another expansion at Tinsley as the space exploration market thrived. Many universities and national labs customers contracted with Tinsley to build custom telescopes that relied on large-format 바카라 나락. By the mid-1970s Tinsley was dedicated to aspheric and high-precision 바카라 나락, largely due to the significant number of space missions launched during this time period.

In the 1990s, mirror defects deployed in theHubble Space Teles바카라 나락perendered it unable to focus properly, andNASAturned to Tinsley to assist with the repair operation on the space teles바카라 나락pe. Tinsley designed and manufactured these extremely precise 바카라 나락rrective mirrors so that a space shuttle crew was able to repair Hubble. This fix properly 바카라 나락rrected its focus, in effect giving Hubble "glasses" that are still effective in capturing clear images.

Today,Coherent TIOS (Tinsley Integrated 바카라 나락 Systems)offers customers a wide range of capabilities in the manufacturing, polishing, finishing, and coating of precision 바카라 나락. The company recently completed large mirrors for theJames Webb Space Teles바카라 나락peand is currently delivering large hexagonal segments to be used in the 바카라 나락nstruction of theThirty Meter Teles바카라 나락pe.

바카라 나락 TIOScontinues to advance its state-of-the-art capabilities for aspheric, freeform, and CTE 바카라 나락 used in a wide range of applications, including beamline and heads-up display 바카라 나락, satellite observation, and space exploration.
