Optics company improves accessibility with on-demand lens configurator and CAD content in 150 formats
Theia Technologies, an optics company that designs, manufactures, and sells high-resolution, high-performance lenses, has launched an online catalog of configurable products. The lens configurator provides on-demand, 3D CAD model downloads and interactive 3D previews for six product families, allowing specifiers, designers, and engineers to preview and download products to test within their designs.
Theia’s lenses feature patented Linear Optical Technology®, which enables an ultra-wide field of view without barrel distortion. With multiple industries using this technology, including security and intelligent traffic, the new CAD catalog accommodates each sector’s design requirements by delivering CAD in more than 150 formats. “A lot of people ask for 3D models of the lenses so they can see exactly how the product fits in their application,” Mark Peterson, Vice President of Advanced Technology at Theia, said. “The configurator makes it easy for designers and drafters to access CAD data and download it in their preferred format."
High-quality CAD content available at customers' fingertips
Previously, customers emailed Theia for 3D models, which sometimes took days to generate. With distributors and customers on five continents, Theia wanted content accessible 24/7. “With the online catalog, content is now available at customers’ fingertips,” Andrea Van Landingham, Vice President of Advanced Technology at Theia, said. “This is especially helpful to international customers because even with different time zones, they can still access information immediately.”
