Optics

Safe handling for glass, ceramics, laser components & high-precision optics

Part carriers for manufacturers of optical components and sophisticated materials

In the manufacturing of optical components and sensitive materials such as technical ceramics, glass components, or laser elements, surface protection, particle freedom, and exact positioning are essential. Even the smallest contaminations or mechanical stresses can render high-precision workpieces unusable.

The part carriers and cleaning systems from ZELL are specially designed for these requirements. Whether in manufacturing, cleaning, assembly or in-house transport – they ensure contamination-free, reproducible and damage-free component handling.

Typical applications in optics, laser and precision engineering

✅ Manufacturing & transport of glass lenses, prisms, mirrors

✅ Handling of laser cutting heads, beam shapers, optics modules

✅ Machining & cleaning of ceramic carriers or sapphire substrates

✅ Intermediate buffering of optical mounts, modules & coating blanks

✅ Cleanroom-compatible processes in high-precision assembly

Why ZELL systems are the right choice for you

🛡️ Maximum surface protection

ZELL workpiece carriers are precisely adapted to your component geometry. This means that glass, ceramics or laser elements lie stress-free, low-vibration and without frictional contact - ideal for high-precision, sensitive workpieces.

🧼 Cleanability & technical cleanliness

Our systems are suitable for aqueous, alcohol-based or ultrasonic cleaning processes. They enable complete rinsing and rapid drying, which is essential in optical production.

📦 Compatible with reusable and logistics systems

ZELL carriers can be used as inlays in KLTs, Euroboxes or cleanroom packaging and are stackable, automatable and traceable - even for the most sensitive goods.

🔍 Traceability & Identification

On request with DMC, laser marking or RFID chip - for seamless component tracking within your production or at suppliers.
