Half Ball Lenses are made from a wide variety of Optical glasses with refractive index ranging from 1.50 to 2.10.
These Half ball lenses range in diameter from 1.0 mm to 5.0 mm
They can achieve a very high level of surface finish depending on the application of the product. Our half ball lens can achieve a surface finish of Ra = 1.2nm.
In terms of visual appearance, our half ball lens can have a surface finish of 20/40 scratch dig.
The optical glasses used for making these half ball lens are purchased from various renowned optical glass material makers like Ohara, Sumita, Schott, etc. which have a strict control on the nd and vd value of the glasses.
Half ball lenses are used to improve signal coupling between Emitters, Fibres, Transmitters, Receivers and Detectors depending on the application.
We Manufacture Glass ball lenses range in diameter from 0.40mm to 8.0mm.
Half ball lenses are made from a wide variety of optical glasses with refractive index ranging from 1.50 to 2.10.
Industrial Technologies manufactures Low Tg ball lenses range in diameter from 0.40mm to 8.0mm.
With higher coupling efficiency required for Transmitters and Receivers, it is becoming more and more popular.
Sapphire is one of hardest known material with consistent quality available on a commercially economical scale.
Spinel is also a well known single crystal being used in the optical industry. The main advantage being that spinel is a cubic single crystal.
Alumina oxide balls resist corrosion and abrasion extremely well and maintain dimensional stability at temperatures up to 1734ºC (3180 ºF).
The high refractive index of Cubic Zirconia material makes it very interesting to be used as a Ball lens for optical telecom products.
We manufacture glass rods from diameter ranging from 0.60mm to 8.00mm in length ranging from 5.00mm to 100.00mm.
Glass rods can be used as preforms for glass molding application as well.
Rod Preforms are manufacture from renowned optical glass material makers like OHARA, HIKARI, SUMITA, SCHOTT, etc.
Quartz ball lens with good UV and IR transmission is widely used for focusing and coupling light into and out of the fibre.
Our AR coated ball lenses are precisely & uniformly coated all over the surface.
