We're An Optical Engineer's Best Friend

IDEX Health & Science is a trusted partner for optical system developers, offering expert support and high-performance Semrock® thin-film filters designed for both standard and demanding environments. With guaranteed performance, rapid delivery, and collaborative problem-solving, IDEX helps OEMs overcome challenges related to evolving technologies, customer expectations, and competitive markets.

A key success story includes WellDog’s next-generation Reservoir Raman Spectroscopy™ systems, which utilize Semrock’s rugged RazorEdge® filters to deliver superior performance in harsh coal seam monitoring environments. These filters offer enhanced reliability, durability, and stability under extreme conditions—ideal for laser, life science, and analytical instrumentation applications.

Manufactured in Rochester, NY, Semrock filters feature hard, thin-film sputtered coatings that won’t degrade from temperature or humidity changes and are backed by a 10-year warranty. Unlike other coating technologies, Semrock filters provide brighter signals, better spectral performance, and long-term durability—enabling faster measurements, reduced system downtime, and fewer optical components.

IDEX supports both volume production and rapid customization. Thousands of catalog items are available for same-day shipping, and custom sizing is typically completed within a week. When needed, co-development engineering and fast prototyping are available to meet complex requirements quickly.

Whether you're sourcing standard catalog components or seeking out-of-the-box optical solutions, IDEX combines technical expertise, design flexibility, and supply chain reliability to accelerate development timelines and enhance product performance—helping customers bring high-quality optical systems to market with confidence.
