Place the MLA on the top of the lens and make it slide over the lens along the optical axis: beam angles will vary in a range from 11°, when the MLA is nearly in contact with the lens, up to 45°, when the MLA is made sliding over the lens. The beam variation is obtained along 5 mm distance.
These lenses perform an optical efficiency over 90% and preserve a perfect light layout in the full range of the beam angles, also in color mixing applications using multi-color LEDs.
