Rising-EO can produce PCV Cylindrical Lens and PCX Cylindrical Lens. Dimensional tolerance: +0/-0.05mm Central Thickness Tolerance: ±0.03mm Irregularity: N<2Fr Eccentricity: <3' Surface quality: 20-10 S/D The characteristic of cylindrical lenses lies in their differing radii along the X-axis and Y-axis. This design endows cylindrical lenses with unique optical properties, enabling them to focus incident light in one direction while not focusing in the direction perpendicular to it, converting a point spot into a line spot or altering the height of an image without changing its width. They are used in situations where beam shapes need to be corrected or adjusted transversely. Their applications are widespread, including but not limited to: laser systems for beam expansion, focusing, and shaping; lighting systems as components such as reflectors and condensers; and optical information processing for altering the aspect ratio of images or focusing onto lines. Cylindrical lenses come in various types, including but not limited to plano-convex cylindrical lenses, plano-concave cylindrical lenses, double-convex cylindrical lenses, and double-concave cylindrical lenses. These different types of cylindrical lenses may differ in shape, focal length, material, and other aspects to meet the diverse application needs of customers.
