JacoTech engraves optical based patterns into cylinders/rollers/drums/mandrels, via diamond turning/milling/flycutting.

JacoTech's light mangement control techniques and plastic cylinder mould products allow for the creation of both simple to complex, optical surface structures that are engraved directly into plastic extrusion/embossing/casting cylinders; which then are later used by our customers for high-volume, low-cost, plastic/polymer optical film materials processing; for products such as: 3D/Animated lenticular lenses used for the print industry, lens array technology for solar energy collection panels, retro-reflective road sign films, and much more.
