Design faster and more compact optical systems without complex mechanics using the electrically focus tunable lens EL-10-30-TC. By applying a current, the focal length of the 10 mm aperture lens can be tuned to a specific value in milliseconds. Thanks to an integrated temperature sensor and characterization data, the lens can be driven to precise focal powers using Optotune’s lens driver 4. The EL-10-30-TC is available with two broadband coating options, VIS for 400-700nm and NIR for 700-1100nm.
Applications:
| EL-10-30-TC-VIS-12D |

| EL-10-30-TC-NIR-12D |

The Optotune ML-20-37 manually focus-tunable lens features a 20mm clear aperture and is designed to have its lens curvature change between convex (+18 dpt), flat (0 dpt) and concave (-18 dpt) by the rotation of the outer adjustment ring. The rotation mechanism is extremely durable (>100’000 rotations), linear and low in torque, allowing for reliable motorization that reaches a repeatability of typically 0.1 dpt.
The ML-20-37 is available with and without C-mount adapter.
Key advantages:
Applications:
Optotune has co-designed with its optics partners a series of lens modules developed around its electrically tunable lenses. This results in an optically optimized and integrated solution that simplifies the design of the vision system.
The ELM-F series consists of fixed focal length lenses specifically designed to accommodate Optotune’s electrically tunable lenses in the optical path. The series, which is in continuous expansion, currently supports S-mount and C-mount cameras up to a sensor size of 1.1” with focal lengths ranging from 5 to 300mm.
As a result of the optimization process, customers can benefit from:
Applications:
The compact EL-3-10 lens is designed for OEM integration into optical systems for various applications. The working principle is based on the well-established shape-changing lens technology. The curvature of the lens is adjusted by applying an electrical current. Thereby, the focal length is tuned to a desired value within very few milliseconds. The lens architecture is “push pull” which means that the lens curvature is deflected from concave to convex. With actuators based on proven voice-coil technology, the EL-3-10 focus tunable lens is extremely reliable and robust, well suited even for applications in harsh environments over large temperature ranges.

With a clear aperture of 16mm Optotune presents the world‘s largest electrically focus tunable lens bringing fast and reliable focus control to high end applications.
Based on the well-established shape-changing lens technology, the EL-16-40-TC can be shaped from a flat zero-state into a plano-concave or plano-convex lens, resulting in a focal tuning range of up to -10 to +10 diopters (at -250 to +250mA).
Response & settling times are 5 & 25ms, respectively, which is magnitudes faster than most mechanical alternatives. Thanks to the robust VCM actuated design the lens can run at high frequencies and performs reliably over billions of cycles.
The design was optimized to minimize thermal drift effects to as little as 0.02 dpt/°C and with the built in temperature sensor, an overall reproducibility of typically +/- 0.05 diopters is achievable.
