Precision Molded Low Tg Ball Lens Offers Multiple Functions
Bhavnagar, India, December 17, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Optical lenses are used in a large number of industrial and research applications in the fields of medical imaging, defense, astronomy, biotech, safety and photography just to name a few. Optical lenses made of a variety of materials such as ruby, sapphire or glass is able to focus or diverge rays of light. High quality crystal or glass ball lenses are therefore very necessary to ensure the proper functioning of laser or microscopy equipment. A ball lens or half ball lens can also be coated with certain materials that enable them to transmit the Ultraviolet or Infrared spectrum.
Low Tg ball lens is a specific variety that is used on account of this material’s ability to be precision molded. The process of precision molding is necessary for the production of certain types of complex lenses in large volumes. Glasses with low Tg have a special composition which enables them to avoid devitrification until a higher temperature than normal, between 500 °C and 700 °C. They are also capable of avoiding reaction to mold materials, thereby ensuring that they retain their integrity. These lenses can be made in many different dimensions which increases their usefulness. In addition, they also have extremely narrow optical tolerance.
Industrial Technologies is a highly reputed manufacturer of ruby, sapphire, glass and spinel ball lenses of all types that is located in India and it supplies its products to customers located all over the globe. This company also produces high index glass ball lenses to meet the needs of its clients. It has a highly advanced manufacturing facility that contains state of the art equipment. The company also employs only highly trained and experienced technicians who are able to ensure that a high level of quality can be maintained at all times.
While many customers require stock glass, ruby or sapphire ball lenses made of low Tg glass, many more clients require custom made products. Executives from the company interact with the customers very closely to find out exactly what their needs. This enables them to manufacture precision molded lenses of the desired materials, ensuring that customers are satisfied.
