  1. “Budgeting” of Optical Systems A Tutorial on Optomechanical Tolerancing and a Synopsis of the Economics Involved Ezra Milby OPTI 521 – Optomechanical Engineering Fall 2009 – Prof. J.H. Burge

  2. Overview • Defining a System Performance Characteristic • Defining the Variable Parameters of the System • Creating a Tolerance Budget • Analyze Production Costs • Iterate the Design Process for Optimization E. Milby - OPTI521 - Intro to Optomech Eng

  3. Performance Characteristics Image Quality Physical Parameter • MTF • Resolution • Energy Distribution • Spot Size • Wavefront Error • Beam Divergence • Geometrical Aberrations • PSF • Bore sight Shift • Effective Focal Length • Back Focal Length • Distortion • Image Plane Displacement E. Milby - OPTI521 - Intro to Optomech Eng

  4. MTF WRT Defocus Error Source: Smith (1985) 30 November 2009 E. Milby - OPTI521 - Intro to Optomech Eng 4

  5. Primary Parameters Sag (A) Spacer Thickness (B) Contact Diameter (C) Surface Radii (R) Airspace Source: Magarill (1999) E. Milby - OPTI521 - Intro to Optomech Eng A variable parameter that is independent of adjustments in other parameters.

  6. Wedge Seat Tilt Contact Diameter Eccentricity Surface to Surface Displacement Base Diameter Eccentricity Second Barrel Clearance Primary Parameters • Center Thickness • Surface Sag • Index of Refraction • Contact Diameter • Axial Seat Position • Clearance Source: Magarill (1999) E. Milby - OPTI521 - Intro to Optomech Eng

  7. Common Variable Parameters Optics Assembly • Index of Refraction • Radius • Irregularity • Thickness • Sag • Diameter • Wedge • Surface Roughness • Airspace • Decenter – Axially • Decenter – Laterally • Tilt • Lens Roll E. Milby - OPTI521 - Intro to Optomech Eng

  8. Assign Tolerances Base Cost

  9. Tolerance Budget • Assign a Tolerance • Determine Sensitivity • Determine Performance Degrade • Adjust as Needed

  10. Assign a cost sensitivity in tolerance budget C = P·T + B Adjust tolerances to minimize cost in the same way Cost Source: Willey (1984) E. Milby - OPTI521 - Intro to Optomech Eng
