DOTI has designed and built its first prototype Collimator (WAC Window) utilizing a precision mirror, custom projection screen, and MIL-SPEC beam splitter. DOTI’s second generation collimator is due to be launched in mid-2011. Check back for more details.
DOTI includes bending acrylic to its service line. DOTI has been successful in bending acrylic as another option to glass.
DOTI acquires an additional building to expand manufacturing capabilities. Located behind the main office building, this additional space will increase efficiency and allow DOTI to increase its capabilities in the future.
DOTI becomes the only independent optics shop supplying massive collimating optics to simulation. DOTI’s current capability is to manufacture optics to a 90+” aperture.
DOTI is working with its customers and evaluating opportunities to address increased manufacturing capacity. DOTI has only begun to explore this major shift in the flight simulation community with its customers.
There will surely be additional news in early 2009.
DOTI increases its manufacturing capacity with a new, massive 110″ draper and a massive 130″ draper. With these two new machines in production, DOTI is able to increase productivity, efficiency, and reduce lead times.
DOTI improves the PERMA® series of mirrors with the Ex-Pres PERMA®. Ex-Pres PERMA® stands for Extreme Precision PERMA mirror.
The Ex-Pres PERMA® mirror includes a DOTI high quality ground and polished mirror mounted on a lightweight rigid backer. These mirrors will work perfectly with extremely high-resolution projection systems and preserve the precision from your lens.
DOTI increases the LS3 product line with the option to laminate with acrylic. The LS3 product line is a great option for customers who are looking for quality optical components with the added benefit of structural strength and safety.
DOTI pioneers an ultra-lightweight mirror product called PERMA. PERMA stands for Performance Enhanced Replacement of Myler Applications. PERMA mirrors were developed by DOTI as an improvement over mylar mirrors which can stretch, sag, lose reflectivity, and quickly show signs of handling and use. PERMA mirrors employ a thin first-surface mirror permanently bonded toa lightweight rigid panel. These lightweight panels include custom mounting points on either the backside or sides of of the panel.
