Custom Special-Shaped Sapphire Hyper-Hemisphere Dome
The special-shaped sapphire hyper-hemisphere dome is a precision-engineered, optically clear component made from sapphire, designed with a non-standard geometry. It’s designed for high-performance applications in demanding environments.
Unlike standard hemispheres, this hyper-hemisphere extends beyond the halfway point of a sphere, offering enhanced optical coverage. Its special-shaped design incorporates custom geometries such as flanges, notches, asymmetric profiles, or elliptical surfaces, ensuring perfect integration with irregular housings and optimized optics for advanced systems.
Additionally, it can include elliptical or multi-radius surfaces that optimize optical performance for specific applications.
The special-shaped sapphire hyper-hemisphere dome is often designed to fit into high-performance environments like optical sensors and cameras used in aerospace or military applications, drones and missiles, where the dome protects sensors while ensuring broad, clear vision, cientific instruments requiring specialized lenses that can endure extreme conditions.
It is the ideal solution for applications requiring optical precision, durability, and custom geometries. Its advanced design provides enhanced viewing angles, reduced distortion, and reliable performance in extreme conditions. Whether for aerospace, defense, underwater optics, or scientific equipment, these domes offer unmatched performance and protection.
We have rich experience in manufacturing custom optical sapphire domes. We can produce a variety of custom sapphire domes, including sapphire hemispherical domes, sapphire hyper-hemispherical domes, kerfs sapphire domes, spherical sapphire domes, aspheric sapphire domes, sapphire domes (Sapphire fairing radome), U-shape sapphire domes, conformal sapphire domes, and special–shaped sapphire hyper-hemisphere dome.
The diameter of HY custom sapphire domes can be manufactured up to Φ390mm.
