Cylindrical Lenses
Product Information
Wide variety of custom-made lenses
Cylindrical lenses have a spherical radius in one direction. This enables the light to be focused in one axis, this allowing a point of light to be stretched into a single line.Bar code scanning and laser projection are among the applications for cylindrical lenses can be used in a variety of different applications, including
Product Examples:
- Lenses plano-convex/plano-concave circular
- Lenses plano-convex/plano-concave rectangular
- Meniscus lenses
- Lenses bi-convex/bi-concave
