Description

The Fresnel Cylindrical Lens CY 581, developed by ORAFOL Fresnel Optics GmbH, is a cutting-edge optical component designed for applications requiring precise linear light focusing. Unlike traditional spherical lenses, this cylindrical lens focuses light into a line rather than a point, making it ideal for applications such as laser scanning, barcode readers, and optical measurement systems. The Fresnel design reduces the thickness and weight of the lens while maintaining high optical efficiency, resulting in a compact yet powerful solution for diverse industrial and scientific uses.

Constructed from high-quality, optical-grade plastic, the CY 581 lens provides excellent light transmission with over 90% efficiency, minimizing energy loss. Its robustness allows it to operate efficiently across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), ensuring reliable performance even in demanding environments. The lens can be customized for various focal lengths and is highly suited for high-power applications, offering maximum adaptability for integration into advanced optical systems.

The Fresnel Cylindrical Lens CY 581 is designed to enhance precision in laser systems, medical imaging, and industrial automation, delivering outstanding performance and flexibility in a wide array of fields.
