New International Partnership Brings 3D-Printed Optics to LED Industry

GOES, NETHERLANDS; PITTSBURGH, PA – LUXeXceL Group, founded by CEO Richard van de Vrie, is the inventor of the revolutionary Printoptical Technology – a 3D printing service for prototyping and manufacturing lenses and optical products – is proud to announce its partnership with Lighting Solution Development, as its manufacturer representative.  Lighting Solution Development will represent LUXeXceL to a large portion of the United States and Canada:
United States:  FL, GA, SC, NC, VA, KY, IL, TN, OH, PA, NY, RI, CN, NJ, DE, MD, DC, WV, ME, MA, VT, and NH.
Canada:  AB, MB, NB, NL, NS, NT, NU, ON, PE, QC, SK, and YT

“LUXeXceL has pioneered additive manufacturing of lenses and optical components,” said David Shiller, President of Lighting Solution Development. “Their patented 3D printing process is a unique digital technology for printing functional optics.   Their one step ‘CAD-to-Optic’ process prints optically smooth structures and surfaces that do not require any tooling nor post processing.  Optics design professionals achieve a new level of design freedom. The ability to design prototypes and manufacture finished optics within just a few days significantly accelerates product development.  This process makes it just as easy to manufacture one, 100 or 10,000 pieces.  LUXeXceL enables cost reductions and quicker turnaround times to the LED industry.  I’m excited to bring this technology to my North American colleagues.”

LUXeXceL’s innovative and unique digital manufacturing technology won the Deloitte Fast-50 2013 Most-Disruptive-Technology Award and the Belgium/Dutch Accenture Innovation Award 2013.
