Diamond tools, optics production, and precision grinding machinery for industrial components
dopa manufactures diamond tooling, grinding/polishing machines, and precision optical components for semiconductor, medical, aerospace, and automotive suppliers. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward CAD (Solidworks), industrial control systems (TIA Portal, Sinumerik 840D), and ERP (SAP)—classic automation and manufacturing software. Active hiring leans manufacturing and engineering, with three concurrent pain-point clusters (procurement optimization, production consistency, market expansion) suggesting the company is scaling production capacity while fighting supplier and process variability.
dopa designs and manufactures diamond tools, grinding/lapping/polishing machines, and produces precision optical components (plano optics, laser optics, crystals, metals, ceramics). Founded in 1990, the company operates an in-house optics production facility and a machinery engineering department (established 2016) that builds single- and double-sided grinding systems. They serve optics, semiconductor, medical device, luxury watch, automotive, and aerospace manufacturers, offering both product sales and contract manufacturing for custom precision parts. Headquarters in Berlin; 51–200 employees, privately held.
