  3. LED Lighting OEM “Pain Points”

  4. Pace of the Industry • LED Technology offers great potential: Source:James Highgate, Director of LED Lighting Technology, The LED Show, USA

  5. Lighting (Industry) of Today

  6. Back to the Basics of Lighting

  7. How People experience the Lighting Industry • Recent quotes:

  10. Ready for a Change? • Can Lighting Industry make use of Long Tail? Source: [1] Anderson, Chris (2006). The Long Tail: Why the Future of Business Is Selling Less of More.

  11. Digital Industrial Manufacturing Revolution 13 feb. 2013 – 3D printing: 'potential to revolutionize the way we makealmosteverything' — President Obama Source: US - National AdditiveManufacturingInnovationInstitute (NAMII)

  12. 21st Century Lighting Industry • Is there a way to follow the pace of the digital LEDs + Controls??

  13. Digital Printed Optics

  14. Digital Printed Optics

  15. Digital Printed Optics Foto’s Printing op optics

  16. Printed Optics for LED Lighting Color Lenses & Textures Concave & Convex - Fresnel Lenses Linear & Circular Prisms Arrays of Lenses Micro Lenses – high complexity Free-form designs from CAD and optical design systems

  17. OEM Benefits

  18. Designer Benefits

  19. Importance of going digital - Software

  20. Importance of going digital - Software

  21. Advantages Digital Optics

  22. Printed Optics Enables Radically Better Fixture Design Groom Energy Report on Lightfair 2012: “It’s no longer about the chip, but about the fixture design”.

  23. New Freeform Optics (1) Freeform Fresnel optic design published by researcher in 2011 academic article. Never been manufactured due to cost / infeasibility of tooling. • (2) Optic printed by LUXeXceL directly from the researcher’s CAD file

  24. Even Rectangle Illumination Configurator Some Parameters: Light source? Lit centrally or from the edge? Target square or rectangular? Example Freeform lens design to deliver these goals Example light distribution patterns for EVEN, SMOOTH, RECTANGULAR illumination. With Printoptical “Complexity is free” – these lenses can readily be printed!

  25. First Prototype Square Illumination Optics Optics create a squarebeam from a previous round beam fixture; First “proof-of-concept” – significant potential for further improvement; Printoptical process allowed rapid prototyping and physical validation, to enable an rapid iteration process;

  26. First Prototypes TIR Printed Optics Proof-of-concept “Lab Prototypes” of TIR optics TIR = Total Internal Reflection – a common design used for plastic molded optics to replace metalized reflectors Optics shown here are 15-20 mm tall, typical size for TIR. This shows the potential to make optics much taller than the current 2-3mm depth currently offered for production

  27. Hurdles of AM in Lighting Industry • Lots of AdditiveManufacturing Equipment Manufacturers, Material Suppliers, Software Creators are working at speed to help you to enjoy the advantages of a new digital era to: • Become more flexible • Becomefaster • Offer customizationoptions • New online-optics design possibilities • Become more Profitable

  28. Potential Applications

  29. Thank you for your attention!
