What is the function of Powell lens? 2022-8-22
ZOOLIED is a professional optical component manufacturer, always committed to the development, research, production, manufacturing, and processing of optical products. We provide customers with various materials and various sizes of powell prisms.

Powell Optical Glass Prism is also called laser linear generator lens. Unlike Cylinder Lens, the dome of Powell optical glass prism is actually a complex two-dimensional aspheric curve, which will produce a lot of spherical aberration and redistribute light along the line; Reduce the light in the center area while increasing the light level at the end of the line, transforming the laser beam into a uniform straight line. Cylindrical Lens will produce poorly illuminated lines with fading edges and hot spots in the center, while the straight lines produced by Powell Optical Glass Prisms have uniform energy distribution and uniform light distribution along the line.The Optical Prisms provide uniform energy distribution along the entire length of the line.
What is the function of Powell lens?

Powell Optical glass beamsplitter are currently widely used in industrial and research applications, where uniform intensity distribution is essential, because lasers are used as illumination sources, or, for example, in material processing, when the entire area irradiated by the laser must be processed to be uniform and equal The way. Powell lenses will produce a very uniform line of illumination for a variety of machine vision applications; from biomedical and automotive assembly to chocolate chip cookie production.
