Once ray tracing has uncovered the most efficient possible design for a light pipe application, the product is ready to be tooled. Though a wide variety of standard light pipe technologies are available, many customers prefer to have custom tooling created to create a custom product that exactly meets their specific performance requirements. Recent technology developments have made custom tooling much easier and more cost effective to complete. Custom tooling can often be completed in about one month’s time depending on design complexity.
