Optics for Hire Developed a Lens Design Based on The New Cree XB-D LED

Tags: lens

Optics for Hire, a product development company located in a suburb of Boston, announced it has developed a lens design based on the new Cree XB-D LED. OFH Lighting’s 20 mm total internal reflection (TIR) optic has a 8.3 degree beam angle and 16 degree field angle. The company says it has uniform color and intensity. OFH will make additional beam pattern designs available in the coming weeks. The company notes that XB-D LED provides double the lumens-per-dollar as the previous generation of Cree LEDs.

"For the best performance, an LED optic should be optimized for the chip to be used. Secondary optics based on Cree’s older ‘XP family’ will not be able to match the performance of a custom design based on the unique XB ray set,” said Optics for Hire President John Ellis. “We know sophisticated LED developers already have relationships with plastic molding houses and require multiple sourcing, “ added Ellis. “We are selling design files which provide clients with maximum flexibility to use their own qualified LED optic molder or bid out production.”
