Optics - Light Pipes - LMC_020_CTP Application Field and Working Principle
Light Pipe or Optical Waveguide is an efficient way to transmit light and signal from one point to another. The light pipe is made up of two parts: the core (or light path) and the cladding. The core is made of an optically transparent material such as acrylic, glass, Teflon or a polymer. This material has a higher refractive index than the cladding material – usually a magnesium fluoride layer – which consequently causes the light to be trapped in the core. The primary function of the cladding is to keep the light trapped in the core so it can guide the light along the pipe’s length.
Light pipes can be used to transmit light in a variety of different applications including backlighting for flags, warning signs, or street signs; visual indicators for industrial machinery; television backlighting; medical instrumentation; and lighting applications such as instrument panel lighting and flashlights. Light Pipes used in medical instrumentation, such as C-arm systems, allow the C-arm to be used for precise imaging when a physician performing a minimally invasive surgery.
The LMC_020_CTP is one of the most popular and powerful light pipe systems on the market. It is composed of two components: an infrared light source and a light receiving cell. The infrared light source is used to illuminate the object being examined and the light receiving cell is used to detect the reflected light. The system transmits the light signals from the source to the receiving cell, allowing for precise imaging and measurements at the target location.
The LMC_020_CTP’s working principle involves the use of an internal fiber optic cable connected to the light source and the light receiving cell. The light is introduced into the fiber optic cable from the source, where the light is absorbed by the core material, passing along the length of the fiber. The light travels along the cable core until it exits the output port at the receiving cell. At this point, the light is then detected and used to perform the desired imaging task.
The LMC_020_CTP is designed to be resistant to temperature fluctuations, and its design allows for reduced signal loss due to reflections and scattering. Its internal fiber optics also provide a high level of bandwidth, ensuring accurate transmission of light signals over long distances. Additionally, the LMC_020_CTP has a small form factor and is easy to install in any working environment.
The LMC_020_CTP light pipe system is used in a wide variety of applications, from medical instrumentation to industrial control systems. This system provides a reliable and efficient way to transmit light from one location to another. Its small form factor, low cost and ease of installation make it an ideal choice for any application requiring precise imaging and control.
