Unmanned Systems Source announces partnership with Guild Optical Associates, Inc.

USS Partnership with GuildUnmanned Systems Source is pleased to announce a new distribution partnership with Guild Optical Associates, Inc. Guild Optical Associates, Inc. specializes in the precision fabrication of custom optical components. Guild Optics manufactures all their components in the USA and uses domestically sourced raw materials. They are recognized within the industry for their ability to accurately and efficiently process optical components from raw synthetic sapphire and other hard optical materials. “We are excited about our partnership with Guild Optical and the unmanned applications of their sapphire window product line,” said Jennifer Jerrick, President of Unmanned Systems Source. Sapphire is the second hardest optical material available today. It is highly scratch resistant and can stand up to contact with sand, dust, salt, and water. Because the material is so strong, Sapphire windows can typically be much thinner than optical windows made from fused silica or glass. It also allows for better field of vision for the lens and the operator. “Unmanned vehicles all make use of optical assemblies that are very delicate and very expensive. The sapphire product line helps protect and, therefore, extend the use of these assemblies,” said Jerrick. Guild Optical Associates, Inc. is ISO Quality Certified and ITAR compliant. The company utilizes an in-house machine shop to allow customized tooling for job requirements for fast turnaround times and improved tooling costs.
