As a professional cylindrical lens supplier, we produce different types of cylindrical lens, such as concave/convex cylindrical lens, astigmatism cylindrical lens, and especially widely used to anamorphic compression of LD (laser diode) output beam. You are welcomed to consult the cylindrical lens price.

Cylindrical Lens Uses

Cylindrical lens are widely used in laser area. Cylindrical lens can creat a laser line in laser marking and inspection systems. There is plano convex and plano concave also spherical cylindrical lens. Cylindrical lenses are used to focus or expand light in a variety of laser and light-based equipment for applications, such as laser scanning optical metrology systems, laser alignment and inspection tools, and laser additive manufacturing and laser processing equipment.

Cylindrical Optics FAQs

Q

What Is Cylindrical Lens?

A

A cylindrical lens is a lens which focuses light into a line instead of a point, as a spherical lens would.Cylindrical lenses are optical lenses which are curved only in one direction. Therefore, they focus or defocus light only in one direction, for example in the horizontal direction but not in the vertical direction.
