Simulating Structural and Thermal Impacts on Design and Manufacturing

July 29, 2021

Zemax Chief Technology Officer Sanjay Gangadhara will sit down with Justine Murphy to discuss his thoughts on the evolution of the manufacturing industry and the increasingly important role of optics and photonics in this space. Many of today’s challenges arise from tighter manufacturing requirements arising from products and systems that are becoming smaller in size. For many such systems optics can offer a valuable solution, but there are important considerations to be accounted for. In many applications, structural and thermal loads can have a significant impact on product performance, and it is critical to account for those impacts during the design and manufacturing process.
