Feeds & Feed Clusters
Patented, additively manufactured feed solutions designed for scalable performance.
Optisys offers a broad portfolio of patented antenna feed designs spanning L-band through Q-band, developed specifically to take advantage of additive manufacturing. By leveraging a growing library of predesigned feed and waveguide components, Optisys can rapidly configure and customize feed solutions to meet mission-specific requirements—while maintaining a clear path to repeatable, full-rate production. This approach enables faster development cycles without sacrificing RF performance or manufacturability.
Optisys feeds support single-band or multi-band operation and can be delivered in a variety of feed architectures. Beyond standalone feeds, Optisys regularly provides integrated feed and reflector systems, allowing customers to achieve high gain in a cost-effective manner. By designing the feed, RF interfaces, and mechanical features as a cohesive system, Optisys reduces integration risk, improves performance consistency, and simplifies program execution.

Key Takeaway
Additive manufacturing enables Optisys to deliver patented, high-performance feed solutions—standalone or integrated with reflectors—that achieve high gain efficiently, repeatably, and at scale.
Why Additive Manufacturing Matters Here
Feed performance depends on precise RF geometry, smooth internal transitions, and tight mechanical integration—all areas where additive manufacturing excels. Additive processes allow Optisys to realize complex feed geometries, integrate multiple RF components, and reduce part count without the alignment and tolerance challenges of traditional fabrication. This results in lighter, more compact feed solutions with highly repeatable RF performance.
