Hello all,
Sorry I have not had time to post much in the last few years, but I try
to follow most of the RS related topics.
Now for business... I need some help/advice:
Here at work we are trying to make a medical part which will also act as
a light guide (light pipe) for LED lights (4) in a circular array. The
material is clear polycarbonate, which I know to have an index of
refraction of 1.6. I am unclear on setting the index of refraction in
VSL materials. If I create a v3 material, I can set the index directly,
but the material is obviously less than ideal.
Can anyone (Vesa?) give me some advise or a material that will do the job?
We have made various CNC machined models, but we though we might be able
to simulate the light with RS as we refine the design, and save some
time and money from constant physical machining.
Thank you in advance for any help!
regards,
Brandon
