Request InfoProvide High-Resolution ImagingEdmund Optics Inc.BARRINGTON, N.J., June 12, 2007 -- Edmund Optics is offering two new fast, fixed-focal-length (FFL) lenses. The new TechSpec lenses offer object-space resolution better than two line pairs per millimeter and are available in popular focal lengths such as 8.5 and 12 mm. The lenses are designed for high-speed, high-resolution imaging, making them suitable for online inspection applications. The lenses support sensors as large as 2/3 in. and provide an angular field of view greater than 40 degress. At the lens’s minimum working distance of 200 mm, this corresponds to a field 240-mm wide for the 8.5-mm focal-length lens...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra December 2022 IssueNonpolarizing Cube BeamsplittersThe TECHSPEC® Nonpolarizing Cube Beamsplitters from Edmund Optics Inc. have a 50/50 reflection/transmission ratio and are constructed from high-tolerance N-BK7 right angle prisms.
