About Us

Modern Molded Optics

Hexagon Optics was founded by a highly experienced team to address weaknesses in the domestic knowledge base and supply chain of precision molded optics. We are a manufacturer of precision optics, specializing in precision glass-molded components, most commonly aspheric lenses, produced using state-of-the-art progressive precision glass molding machines. This modern approach provides the flexibility to support both low and high-volume production, and enables us to work with materials spanning the electromagnetic spectrum, including chalcogenide glass for infrared applications.

The Optics Company That Actually Wants to Mold Lenses

While many suppliers treat molded optics as a secondary offering, we have built our expertise, infrastructure, and partnerships around doing it exceptionally well. From optical glass to advanced materials like chalcogenides, we focus on high-precision molding that delivers consistent quality, repeatability, and cost efficiency for demanding optical applications.

Your Success Is Our Business Model

Our business model is built around partnerships. We exist to provide world-class optics and the supply-chain expertise needed to bring your products to market. We never position ourselves against the very companies we support; instead, we operate as an extension of your team, focused on enabling your success.

Your growth is our priority. By staying out of your product space and concentrating on what we do best, we create a relationship rooted in trust and long-term collaboration. When you work with Hexagon Optics, you gain a dedicated partner whose sole objective is to strengthen your competitive advantage.

More than Just Collimating Optics

Our focus goes well beyond standard catalog-based collimating optics. Collimation remains an important segment of the market, but the rapid growth of advanced imaging systems has made precision glass molded aspheres a critical enabling technology.

Imaging applications demand superior surface accuracy, tighter form tolerances, larger apertures and a broader range of optical glass, requirements that exceed the limits of traditional off-the-shelf solutions. Hexagon Optics is purpose-built to meet these needs, with deep experience in material selection, tool design and process optimization to deliver consistent performance at production scale.

Improve Your Optics Supply Chain

Our team brings decades of experience working with optics and molding-specific suppliers around the world. If a component cannot be manufactured in-house, we can source it through our trusted channel partners, ensuring quality and reliability in your supply chain.

Automation and Expertise

At Hexagon Optics, we believe in simplicity without oversimplification. Precision optics manufacturing is an inherently delicate process, and we’ve spent our efforts perfecting it.

That philosophy extends to how we work. We believe in semi-automation, not full automation, and augmented intelligence, not artificial intelligence alone. By pairing advanced automation and intelligent systems with essential human expertise, we simplify processes, improve outcomes, and keep costs as low as possible for our customers and our employees.

Effortless Partnerships. Seamless Collaboration.

By leveraging deep experience across optics design, development and manufacturing, along with domestic and international relationships built over more than two decades, Hexagon Optics is invested in our partners’ success. With the largest body of molded optics training content in the world, we also offer education and collaboration to ensure the best possible product outcomes.

We emphasize rigorous execution, but we also value openness, collaboration and approachability. Hexagon Optics is located in Apopka, Florida, on the northwest side of the greater Orlando area. If you’re nearby, we’d be glad to welcome you for a visit.
