TIR Prisms: The Unsung Heroes of DLP Optical Engines
In the world of digital light processing, TIR prisms serve as the critical bridge between micro-mirror arrays and projection optics. Their ability to precisely redirect light while maintaining polarization and minimizing losses makes them indispensable for high-performance DLP systems. Why...
Pixelation Phenomenon in UV DLP 3D Printing: Causes and Mechanisms
UV DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology is widely used in resin 3D printing for its speed and precision, but printed models may exhibit "pixelation," characterized by tiny square or grid-like textures on surfaces. This phenomenon is closely tied to the...
Is the TIR Prism Directly Corresponding to the DMD Chip Size?
TIR prisms and DMD chip sizes exhibit a functional compatibility relationship, but they are not strictly one-to-one matched. The key points are as follows: I. Core Compatibility Factors Optical Coverage MatchingThe TIR prism must ensure that the illumination beam fully...
