Knight Optical has successfully launched a range of Stock Colour Glass Filters, for use within Entertainment and Design Industry. Within the LED Lighting Industry, Colour Glass Filters can used as downlights within a stage production by filtering the different visible wavelengths and filter out unwanted light from a white light source to provide desired coloured light that is perceived by an audience to be a highly saturated or intense colour. This is just what you need to help set the atmosphere for whatever event you’re planning We hold a massive inventory of Bandpass, Long pass, Short pass, and Mounted Colour Glass Filters. Stock sizes of 25mm diameter; and 50x50mm squares x 1mmthk with larger sizes of 300x300mm available on most of our filters as a custom option. Custom shapes and sizes at short notice, in most cases turned around within 1-2 week. Alternative thickness substrates available. For more information read the PDF …..

Knight Optical offers a range of precision optical components for use in IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) applications. The most common usage of IPL systems are typically used as photo epilators.Custom Ceramic Reflectors are a key component for this application. The xenon flash lamp which are typically used emit light in 360 degrees. However utilising ceramic reflectors which are light reflectors with a U channel means that light which would normally be wasted i.e. shining backwards is now refocused down into the filters and light guides. Knight Optical provides ceramic reflectors which are typically moulded from alumina. This choice of material is down to its ability to withstand thermal stresses and high reflectivity values.

Knight Optical can offer you Stock and Custom Fresnel Lenses, for use within Magnification Displays in a range of materials such as PMMA Acrylic and Borosilicate. We supply a range of Fresnel Lenses for a range of applications. All individually QA checked and metrology tested for quality to ensure parts meet customer specification. Supplied in a range of sizes and shapes with custom coatings tailored to meet your individual applications. Our Fresnel Lenses consist of a flat surface with interspace concentric steps whereby each step corresponds to the surface of a conventional lenses. PMMA Acrylic is a preferred material type of the Magnification Displays as it is very lightweight when used in a large size. Fresnel lenses is a common focal length equivalent to a traditional lens, but with a fraction of the thickness. Additionally, because the lens is so thin little light is lost by absorption.
