Hong Kong Felix Glass Co., Limited manufactures OEM custom single-crystal sapphire spherical covers for optical systems that need a hard, clear and dimensionally controlled protective dome.
This renovated product page keeps the original content direction: custom size, sapphire optical dome engineering, optional coating, prototype support, tight drawing review and production for underwater, aerospace, laser, imaging and machine vision equipment.
A sapphire optical dome is used when the optical path needs protection from abrasion, pressure, outdoor exposure, cleaning, heat or chemical contact while still allowing imaging or sensing through a curved cover.
The dome can be reviewed around diameter, wall thickness, radius, edge finish, coating and inspection method so the part fits the housing instead of forcing the equipment design around a standard catalog item.
Selected for scratch resistance, stable optical protection and long service in demanding environments.
Diameter, curvature, thickness and edge details can be matched to customer drawings.
Dimensional, surface, coating and optical checks can be aligned with the project requirement.
The primary material is synthetic single-crystal sapphire. BK7 or K9 optical glass can still be discussed as a secondary option when the project requires optical glass but does not need sapphire hardness.

The correct dome design depends on the optical path, housing seal, cleaning method, working pressure, target wavelength and expected service environment.

Sapphire can help protect imaging modules where pressure, corrosion, cleaning and optical clarity must be considered together.

Drawing-based domes support compact sensor housings, laser modules and optical covers with defined inspection needs.

For machine vision and inspection systems, sapphire helps reduce wear on exposed protective covers.
Small changes in wall thickness, edge finish or spherical radius can affect assembly fit, sealing pressure and optical performance. For US buyers comparing custom suppliers, the useful question is not only whether sapphire can be made, but whether the drawing can be reviewed against machining, polishing, coating and inspection limits.
Felix Glass can review the drawing, application environment and target quantity before confirming the production route, helping purchasing teams avoid unclear specifications and repeated sample changes.
Outer diameter, radius, thickness, optical zone, coating and assembly edge are checked first.
Sapphire blank size, machining allowance and inspection requirements are planned for the project.
Diamond tooling is used to form the curved profile and prepare the part for optical polishing.
Surface quality and optional AR, AG or AF coating are reviewed by optical and service needs.
Dimensions, surface condition, coating appearance and packing protection are checked before shipment.
The dome faces abrasion, repeated cleaning, marine exposure, outdoor service, heat, pressure or a long-use protective role.
The assembly needs an optical dome shape but the service conditions do not require sapphire hardness or chemical resistance.
AR, AG and AF choices should be tied to wavelength band, lighting environment, cleaning method and visible reflection target.
Yes. Diameter, radius, thickness, edge finish, coating and inspection points can be reviewed from the drawing before quotation.
Prototype sampling can be discussed for custom projects so engineering teams can verify fit and optical performance before larger orders.
Share the wavelength range, reflection target, cleaning condition and application environment so AR, AG, AF or another coating route can be reviewed.
Send the drawing, material request, diameter, radius, wall thickness, tolerance, coating, quantity, use environment and inspection requirement.
For a useful quotation, provide the dome drawing, material choice, coating target, quantity, inspection notes and application environment. The Felix Glass team can review feasibility and production details for your custom sapphire optical component project.
