PMMA Array Disc: Mapping Repeated Features for Mold Review
A presentation-based study of a PMMA array disc and optical tooling, showing how feature indexing connects mold review, sample inspection and quotation requirements.
Case Study
Molded Automotive Optics: Controlling Beam Shape and Uniformity
A lighting optic can look clear and still produce an uneven beam. Connect optical geometry, material selection, molding behavior and assembly alignment before defining automotive tooling and acceptance tests.
Case Study
Molded Optics: Different Functions, Different Acceptance Tests
Imaging lenses, illumination optics and analytical optical paths need different evidence of performance. Use the component’s function to choose material data, tooling controls and meaningful acceptance tests.
Case Study
Choosing an Optical Mold: Process, Cavities and Validation
Optical mold selection links part geometry, molding method and cavity strategy. Understand what each choice changes and which trial measurements are needed before accepting a production tool.
