Plastic Optics Made with 3-D Printing Process
A
dditive manufacturing (AM) in the Printoptical 3-D print- ing process developed by LUXeXceL Group BV (Goes, Netherlands) using Photopia software from LTI Optics LLC (Westminster, CO) is shaping the future design of plastic op- tics. Plastic optics for lighting fixtures for any number of tradi- tional and innovative uses can be custom manufactured with an economic order quantity of one (EOQ1). The Printoptical 3-D printing service for on-demand manufacturing of optics directly from a CAD model eliminates the need for expensive molds or tooling.
Plastic optics like these micro lenses with wood texture can be custom manufactured for innovative lighting uses with an economic order quantity of one (EOQ1) by the new one-step Printoptical process.
With the combination of Photopia as a tool for parametric optics design and LUXeXceL’s Printoptical technology for mass customized manufacturing, lighting fixture manufactur- ers can accelerate getting new products to market and offer a broader range of products while cutting both their initial product development costs and their working capital require- ments. In fact, product designers are freed from a limited
