A Heritage of Innovation
Since 1984, our Optem brand has been a leader in high resolution micro inspection optics. Optem modular lens platforms provide versatile, streamlined development for demanding applications including semiconductor backend wafer inspection and life science imaging, offering solutions across the entire visible to short-wave infrared (VIS–SWIR) spectrum.
LINOS is our premium brand of off the shelf optical and optomechanical components, built on a long history of delivering the highest quality and reliability dating back to 1898. Designed and manufactured in Germany, these products are trusted for precision performance in machine vision, laser processing, medical, display inspection, and scientific applications.
Engineering Insight That Shapes Better Imaging

Our vertically integrated capabilities, supported by proprietary manufacturing technologies and in house simulation software, provide deep insight into performance and manufacturability, ensuring solutions are designed right the first time.
Through a consultative design approach, Excelitas collaborates with customers to deliver tailored imaging solutions with consistent, repeatable performance from unit to unit.
Precision Imaging at Any Scale - From Microns to Meters and Prototypes to Production
Microscopy to Aerial Imaging

Our optical solutions are engineered to deliver precise, reliable imaging whether you are capturing micron‑level detail in microscopy or inspecting large surfaces at production scale.
With modular platforms and deep design expertise, Excelitas enables engineers and system designers to achieve consistent performance across every field of view, and every stage of manufacturing.

LINOS lenses used for aerial imaging are built to the same precision standards as optics engineered for sub micron wafer inspection.
Prototyping to Full Scale Manufacturing

Excelitas accompanies your innovation journey from prototype to production, giving you the confidence to scale seamlessly.
Optem FUSION is a prime example of our modular design philosophy, offering reconfigurable platforms that adapt as your system requirements evolve, enabling smooth scaling from early prototypes to mature systems.
Custom Optical Solutions, Tailored to Your Exact Needs.

If your requirements go beyond standard offerings, our modified-off-the-shelf and fully custom development pathways provide engineered optical solutions tailored for the most demanding applications.
