Cylindrical Lens
- Cylindrical lenses (also called C-lenses) have curvature only along one axis. They are used to collimate or focus light in a single dimension. We supply plano-convex, plano-concave, bi-convex and bi-concave cylindrical lenses.
Features
• One-dimensional beam shaping
• Precise cylindrical surface
• Low scattering
• Multiple coating selections
• Custom size and focal length available
Application
Widely used for laser line generation, beam shaping, optical measurement and machine vision.
