Edmund Optics Expands High-Performance HP Series with In-Stock 6.5mm Fixed Focal Length Lens

In-stock 6.5mm lens delivers high-resolution performance for factory automation and machine vision systems requiring shorter working distances

12/22/2025, Barrington, NJ USA   —

Edmund Optics®, a leading global provider of optical and imaging technology solutions, has expanded its TECHSPEC® HP Series Fixed Focal Length Lenses with the introduction of a new 6.5mm focal length, extending high resolution imaging performance to applications requiring shorter working distances and wider angular fields of view. The HP Series is engineered for factory automation and machine vision systems where resolving fine detail is critical to inspection accuracy and reliable measurement.

Keysight’s ODE, a leading developer of optical design and analysis software tools, brings intelligent predictive optical design tools such as CODE V for imaging systems design, LightTools for illumination design, LucidShape for automotive lighting design, ImSym for imaging systems virtual prototyping, and RSoft photonic device tools for rigorous electromagnetic simulations of photonic and optoelectronic devices.

The new 6.5mm lens preserves the core performance characteristics of the HP Series, delivering superior resolution to support demanding inspection tasks such as small defect detection and high precision dimensional analysis. Optimized for sensors up to 1.1”, the lens enables detailed imaging across larger fields of view, helping system designers meet performance targets in compact or space constrained setups.

Designed and manufactured in house, the HP Series offers a consistently high optical performance solution across multiple focal lengths, allowing engineers to maintain imaging performance as system geometries change. The addition of the 6.5mm focal length expands this flexibility, giving machine vision system designers additional options for systems where shorter working distances or larger fields of view are required. With in stock availability and fast delivery, the new 6.5mm HP Series lens supports rapid integration into production ready factory automation systems.
