Wintech Groupe designs and manufactures custom-made optical windows and optical parts for the key players in the defence industry (Safran, Thales, MBDA, etc.).

These optical and optomechanical items are dedicated to infrared and visible spectrum applications. We also create prototypes and pre-productions from optical components. These optical parts are custom-designed to equip military equipment in particular.

Examples of creations for the defence sector: 

  • Manufacturing of CaF2 lenses for the Milan fire-control system.
  • Use of polished Sapphire plates for the turrets of AMX Leclerc tanks.
  • Creation of Silica light globe for Suffren class submarines.
  • Manufacturing of prototypes and pre-productions for Photonis
