The Powell lens, also known as a laser generating lens, is an essential optical component designed to transform a collimated laser beam into a uniform straight line. This lens spreads the laser beam into a one-dimensional fan shape, making it ideal for applications requiring precise and consistent line generation.

Key Specifications of Powell Lens:

• Diameter: 6-40 mm

  • The Powell lens comes in a range of diameters from 6 mm to 40 mm, providing flexibility for various application needs.

• Fan Angle: 3°-120°

  • Available fan angles include 3°, 5°, 10°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 90°, 100°, and 120°, allowing for precise control over the spread of the laser line.

• Laser Beam Diameter: 0.5 mm – 18 mm

  • The lens can accommodate laser beam diameters ranging from 0.5 mm to 18 mm, making it versatile for different laser sources and applications.

• Working Wavelength: 405 nm – 950 nm

  • The Powell lens is suitable for a wide range of wavelengths, from 405 nm to 950 nm, covering visible to near-infrared light.

• Line Homogeneity: 80% – 90%
