Materion Offers Unique Choices for Customers
WESTFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Materion Precision Optics, a Materion Corporation (NYSE:MTRN) business,
is introducing its family of ArrayTecTM filter arrays in a
range of designs to meet individual customer needs. Added to its
currently available "Custom" line are the new "Basic" and "Select"
categories, all high-resolution imaging arrays used in demanding space
and multi-spectral defense and commercial applications. Each filter
array construction offers distinct advantages as to customization, size,
assembly, price and lead-time.
Select an Optimal Filter Array
Customers now have the option to choose a commercial off-the-shelf
"Standard" filter array, a semi-customized "Select" filter array or a
fully "Custom" filter array. In selecting the best filter array for
their application, criteria such as balancing better system performance
with complexity, cost and lead time can be considered. The following
compares features of the three filter array types.

Market Breakthrough
Materion Precision Optics is a leading manufacturer of complex optical
filters in the industry. Its filter array technology improves
performance and reduces size and weight, while its novel techniques for
stray light control provide superior image quality. These innovations
led to the replacement of single wavelength, discrete filters in most
multi-spectral, space-based instruments. Materion ArrayTecTM "Standard"
and "Select" options will allow this technology to be used in a broader
set of commercial applications such as Pico-satellites, unmanned aerial
vehicles, hand-held spectroscopy, color matching and mobile sensing
applications.
For those interested in the innovative Materion ArrayTecTM
filter arrays, there are multiple factors to consider from application
to size to price to turn-around time. For assistance in choosing whether
a Basic, Select or Custom filter array type is most suitable, a Materion
Sales Representative can provide more information.
