At SyntecOptics.com, we manufacture custom optical retainers made of advanced materials like Ultem. These materials need specially designed custom machining processes.

In order to run 20% glass filled Ultem retainer at high production volume and low pricing, we have to overcome the usual challenges that this material presents as well as figure out a new and different way to run this in a lower cost manner. The part was larger than the standard retainers we run unattended, so the parts catcher was not working very well. By developing innovative techniques of custom manufacturing, we can hit customer pricing and deliveries.
