LIQUID FOCUS LENSES
Ruggedized

liquid focus Lenses


Liquid Focus lenses from Schneider-Kreuznach mark a step into the future of industrial lenses. Unlike conventional industrial lenses with motorised focusing, they are virtually wear-free, even after millions of cycles. Liquid Focus lenses offer a new level of flexibility for applications with fast changing working distances. Discover how Liquid Focus lenses can optimise your industrial applications.

What are liquid focus lenses?


 

Conventional lenses use mechanical elements to adjust the focus. In contrast, Liquid Focus lenses use a liquid lens element that changes its curvature by applying an electrical voltage to affect the focus. This allows for fast and continuous focusing. This process is almost wear-free and can be repeated almost indefinitely at very short intervals.
