Whether it is for lighting or machine vision, sensor or display technology, ORAFOL Fresnel optics offers the whole process chain for customer specific polymer Fresnel lenses. Optical design, prototyping, tooling, precision replication and, depending on the product, precise CNC cutting, optical coating and subassembly montage – all from one hand.

The Fresnel lenses can be combined with various other structures in arrays or double-sided microstructured optics. Diameters of up to 520 mm (20+ inches) are possible as well as production volumes from 1 to 1 million pieces.

Advantages of polymer Fresnel lenses in comparison to conventional lenses are numerous. They are lighter, require significantly less space and their ingenious physical principle allows for more extreme properties. Wherever weight and space are concerning factors, Fresnel lenses are worth a thought.
