One option is to customize a lens with a fixed focus. The minimum order quantity starts at only 100-200 pieces (depending on lens type). Some alternative options that we offer for custom lenses is a lens with a fixed focus or a lens with a fixed aperture. The same minimum order quantity of 100-200 pieces applies for these options (subject to the model\/type of lens that you are enquiring about). When a IR-filter is required, there are a variety of lens filters available online that are suitable to use with you cameras. For one who does not want to mount the lens filter themselves, we can offer you a lens with a IR-filter glued to the lens. The minimum order quantity for the custom glued IR-filter is also 100-200 pieces (depending on lens type).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnother custom lens option is a vision lens with a suitable custom mount for your special camera. A variety of lens adapters for industrial cameras are available on our website. With these adapters, a F-mount lens or M12 lens could be used on a C-mount camera. We also have an adapter for CS-mount to M12 mount available. Some vision applications have minimum space available, in this case a lens with a custom lens mount offers a good solution to avoid the need of using an adapter. A custom lens mount is possible for a minimum of 100 lenses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition, we offer option of customizing the specific lens part number. Changing the lens part number to your own custom part number is possible for low quantities of 50-100 pieces (depending on lens type).

For small customization options like a custom lens mount, fixed focus or a fixed aperture there is a one-time fee only of € 1.000-€ 5.000 (subject to lens type). The price per piece remains similar to the price of the standard lens. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome other basic customizations, such as a custom part number, may be provided free of charge if you commit to a certain volume of orders. In other cases, the standard price of the customized vision lens could slightly increase to facilitate the changes. For instance, adding a glued IR filter to your lens only increases the standard price of the vision lens slightly. For more complex customization needs where specialized components or extensive engineering work is required, a one-time fee may be charged. For instance, a custom focal length includes € 50.000-€150.000 NRE costs (subject to lens type). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow many lenses do I need to order for a customized lens?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe minimum order quantity for a custom lens depends on the level of customization that is required to meet your specific needs.
