About SPO

SPO, owned by Kibbutz Shamir, is a pioneer in the field of precision optics, developing Free-Form-Optics systems to produce customized optical components in brief  time cycles and high accuracy for premium customers, innovators and startups.

The optics fabrication process is very complex and sensitive,  requiring maximum precision capabilities, a deep and  extensive understanding of  component processing, as well as system engineering  and process control .  At SPO we have mastered the technology and expertise involved in the  manufacturing and coating of precision components such as lenses and mirrors, which  are used in various industries and  fields : defense, medical, AR/VR, automotive, display and imaging, photography etc.

The optical components are the heart of any electro-optical system. The performance of these components and their accuracy dictate the performance of the entire system. SPO specializes in the production of custom components, to provide an optimal solution that optimally fits the customer’s needs.

SPO provides a full service through the electro optics value-chain, including optical-design, surfacing & polishing, metrology, coating and optical cementing. Digitizing our entire process enables us to provide the swiftest and most accurate products and services, minimizing  customer risk, shortening time cycles, and ultimately improving the performance of the system while minimizing and reducing its cost and size.

SPO Vision

Our vision is to be a world-leading company at the forefront of  precise knowledge and optical production, based on a unique technology with a sustainable advantage.

Doron Sturlesi, Ph.D.

Physicist, SPO Chief Scientist

“The art of Free Form Optics continues to fascinate us:
SPO directs itself to the most challenging technological edge of precision optics manufacturing.  A combined effort of low-level machine interfacing and high-level optimization algorithms to control the process of non-symmetric optical figuring is required. But more than this, SPO offers an intimate dialogue between its engineering team and  the customer’s design team to come up with an optimized and manufacturable solution  for  optical system requirements.”
