About Us

For over a decade, you’ve known AOM as a CGH supplier for some of the world’s most challenging and precise optical engineering projects.

Today, we aim to bring precision metrology to a broader set of applications and engineering challenges. Complex optics are used more widely than ever before – and at levels of precision and production volumes that seemed impossible just a few years ago. The challenges that today’s applications face are on par with the biggest space telescope projects of the past, but with a fraction of the budget and extremely tight timelines to complete.

AOM is bringing new and novel solutions to optics projects and programs to address this new world of optics production. We are enabling a new level of precision and ease of use for complex optics metrology from surface figure error of aspheres, freeforms, and off-axis sections to optical system alignment and a range of engineering services that can be leveraged to build complete metrology solutions for applications from volume production to high-value one-off systems.

The future of optics is bright. AOM is your optical metrology partner to realize the future!

Quality Policy

Arizona Optical Metrology, LLC (AOM) was established in 2009 to provide a range of custom products and services for measuring complex optical surfaces and systems. We are based in Tucson, AZ, USA.

Quality is important to our business because we value our customers. We strive to provide our customers with products and services that meet and even exceed their expectations.

We are committed to continuous improvement and are actively formalizing our long-standing quality culture into a Quality Management System to provide a framework for measuring and improving our performance.

Our internal procedures are reviewed regularly and will be held in a “Quality Manual” made available to all employees.

Although the President has ultimate responsibility for quality, all employees have a responsibility within their own areas of work to help ensure that quality is embedded within the whole of the company.
