Oerlikon Optics Introduces WhisperWheel(TM) RS for DLP(R) Projection Systems.


BALZERS, Liechtenstein -- Oerlikon Optics, the global leader in optical component solutions, announced the launch of WhisperWheel[TM] RS the next generation of ColorWheel[TM] innovation.

The WhisperWheel[TM] RS, the newest addition to the WhisperWheel[TM] portfolio is a premium ColorWheel[TM] focusing its advancements by reducing sound pressure levels and providing innovative design detail. The reduced sound pressure levels achieved by Oerlikon Optics are a result of revolutionary process improvements and motor technology advancements. The WhisperWheel[TM] RS is suited for any ColorWheel[TM] application that requires stringent sound levels with outstanding clear aperture availability. Along with revolutionary processes and breakthrough design parameters, the WhisperWheel[TM] RS is the most advantaged WhisperWheel[TM] available.

New features in addition to conventional technologies are:

* Improved sound performance compared to standard WhisperWheel[TM]

* Up to >15% increase of optical clear aperture

* WhisperWheel[TM] RS is well suited for applications sustaining rotational speed Rotational speed (sometimes called speed of revolution) indicates, for example, how fast a motor is running. Rotational speed is equivalent to angular speed, but with different units. Rotational speed tells how many complete rotations (i.e.  of 14,400 rpm with an outside diameter Outside diameter is the diameter of the addendum (tip) circle. In a bevel gear it is the diameter of the crown circle. In a throated wormgear it is the maximum diameter of the blank. The term applies to external gears.1

The new WhisperWheel[TM] RS is manufactured utilizing high precision, state of art equipment, and resources incorporating the features of a standard WhisperWheel[TM] including:

* Patented (US pat. 5,292,417) sputtering A popular method for adhering thin films onto a substrate. Sputtering is done by bombarding a target material with a charged gas (typically argon) which releases atoms in the target that coats the nearby substrate. It all takes place inside a magnetron vacuum chamber under low pressure.  technology for the highest filter performance

* Conformance to a variety of customer applications such as segment angle, segment quantity, and filter parameters

* Quality control systems for sound pressure level, balancing, and filter performance for every product.

The WhisperWheel[TM] RS will be presented at Oerlikon Optics' booth at InfoComm in Anaheim, California “Anaheim” redirects here. For Annaheim, see Annaheim, Saskatchewan.
