Natural Science Forum / Physics / Optics / September 2005plastic lenses
Anyone know of a good place to buy small off-the-shelf plastic lenses? > Anyone know of a good place to buy small off-the-shelf plastic > lenses? That's a rather loose request. How small? What plastic? What F.L.? Thorlabs has a bunch of plastic lenses but I don't know if they're the kind you want. >> Anyone know of a good place to buy small off-the-shelf plastic >> lenses? > >That's a rather loose request.

I'm hoping to find a plastic drop-in at a lower price. I can have one custom made in China, but the saving would be small at our volume. G-S makes catalog plastics lenses as well as custom http://www.gsoptics.com/catalog_optics/  SignatureAdam Norton Norton Engineered Optics Optical design and systems engineering for Silicon Valley and beyond. http://home.ix.netcom.com/~anorton/ (Remove antispam feature before replying) >>> Anyone know of a good place to buy small off-the-shelf plastic >>> lenses?

They revised their standard lens catalog and only manufacture/support lenses in the "1000" series. So most of the lenses are not available as catalog lenses. > G-S makes catalog plastics lenses as well as custom > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >> I can have one custom made in China, but the saving would be small at >> our volume. |
