Expanded photonics manufacturing capacity

Jenoptik announces the newest expansion of its manufacturing operations in Florida.

Jenoptik adds 7,110 square feet of manufacturing space to its Jupiter, Florida facility to meet continuing high demand for advanced photonic solutions. The expansion will be home to both open and modular cleanroom manufacturing operations.

Construction on the new assembly building will be completed in January 2023. The flexible manufacturing space offers a contamination-controlled environment and can be configured as required for future projects. Jay Kumler, president of Jenoptik Optical Systems in North America, commented, "We are investing in differentiating technologies, advanced equipment and employees, and we are committed to meeting our customers’ expectations for high levels of cleanliness and contamination control.”

Jenoptik’s ongoing expansion in Jupiter is the direct result of growth realized in support of increasing customer production requirements for the company’s products.

The new addition aptly named “Perseverance” to honor the group’s work on Nasa’s 2020 Mars Mission, nearly doubles the existing flexible manufacturing area. It is equipped with dedicated test stands and modular class 7 cleanrooms along with raised ceilings that can accommodate an overhead lift to move product, allowing for more production efficiency in a contamination-controlled environment that can be configured as required for future projects.
