What if light diffusion could be engineered directly into the surface, without the need for additional materials?
By combining laser texturing with Roctool induction heating, micro and nano-structures can be replicated with high fidelity, enabling optical functions to be integrated directly into molded plastic parts.
๐ Measured performance:
โข Light uniformity improved from 0.3% to 37.2%
โข Up to 3 ร higher luminance vs. standard diffusers
โข ~94% texture replication accuracy
๐ก System-level impact:
โข Optimized LED usage and reduced power consumption
โข Fewer components and simplified assembly
โข Greater design freedom for complex geometries and tight spaces
Originally explored several years ago, this approach remains highly relevant to todayโs automotive lighting challenges, particularly in demanding applications such as headlight systems, where efficiency, precision, and integration are crucial.
