Optics mount in OUTSERT technology

Motivation

Technologies for optics mounting adapted to batch production conditions

• High design variability, quick and easy assembly
• Applicable in mobile projection or illumination optics
• Innovative approach: Injection molding onto sheet-metal (OUTSERT)

Advantages

Economical production at quantities plus:

• High dimensional stability and low thermal expansion from sheet-metal
• Great variability and “snap-in” features from plastic materials
• Saving of parts and logistics efforts from injection molding

Our work

• CAD-design and FEM-modeling of OUTSERT solutions for selected optical applications
• OUTSERT tools development and prototyping (in cooperation with experienced manufacturing partners)
• Full characterization of OUTSERT lens mounts with respect to mechanical and optical properties
• Support in customer specific optical design and mechanical design of lens mounts
