The use of optical free-form surfaces allows complex lens systems to be simplified and thus made more compact and weight-optimized. In addition, the use of optical freeform surfaces enables the realization of completely new functionalities. At the same time, their manufacturing process is complex and therefore time-consuming and expensive. The production of individual freeforms in small batch sizes can be carried out efficiently using a CNC machine.
