FLEXPOINT DOE - Laser module applications
DOEs, or diffractive optical elements, allow a dot laser to be used to provide many different beam patterns.
In the case of complex manufacturing processes involved in car and aircraft manufacture, DOE laser modules can be an extremely useful and important part of the manufacturing process. Wind resistance and drag co-efficient analysis which are modelled extensively prior to manufacturing can provide an enhanced final product. Using a laser module DOE as a grid or parallel lines can give the best spatial measurement when inspecting the final product against the original design. The measured results will ensure that the final product has met the required specifications. Our DOEs can be added onto or be integrated into our FLEXPOINT laser modules.
Some applications require special laser patterns that can be produced by so-called diffractive optical elements. These optics are computer generated and are manufactured cheaply in mass production by copying the master optic. These optics can be permanently integrated into a FLEXPOINT laser module or delivered in a pluggable plastic mount.
In industrial image processing lasers are used for special types of illumination. Often a pattern projection is required that may be implemented with the help of a diffractive optical element (DOE).
These optics, which are used to create the structured light, may be fixated in a FLEXPOINT laser module or mounted to the module as a removable cap.
