Transport for the optics and photonics industry
Optics and photonics companies supply lenses, mirrors, laser systems and optical assemblies to machine builders, research and medical technology. What matters: preserve alignment, protect glass, avoid fogging.
What matters
- Aligned assemblies
- Fixation according to the manufacturer, calm handling.
- Glass and coating
- Moulded packaging, no pressure, no stacking.
- Temperature and moisture
- Avoid standing times, pack dry, allow acclimatisation.
- Laser systems
- Often heavy and orientation-sensitive – secure upright.
Planning questions
We clarify these points before quoting – the earlier they are known, the more precise the plan.
- Which products, and how are they packed?
- Are there temperature or moisture requirements?
- May the packages be tilted?
- Who takes over at the customer?
- Should direct transport be planned?

Questions and answers: Optics and photonics industry
What needs attention when transporting laser systems?
Weight, orientation and alignment. They are secured upright and handled calmly; the manufacturer fits the fixations.
How is fogging on optics avoided?
Through dry packaging, short standing times and acclimatisation before opening at the recipient.
Can optical components travel as groupage?
For valuable and sensitive parts we tend to recommend direct transport. What fits is clarified per consignment.
