Where can I buy this lens?

[Gonzakpo]

Hello everyone. I'm trying to replicate this module but at a lower cost: **broken link removed**

The problem is that I don't know where to buy these kind of lenses. The one in the module is a 5.6mm Collimator lens with IR Cutoff filter. Probably I wont use exactly the same model because I have a different application but if you could point me to a lens with lends holder for PCB manufacturer I would be very grateful. Basically I need a lens (with IR filter) + lens holder for PCB. The exact model is yet to be determined but first I have to see what is available to buy and for that I need to know who make these small lenses.

Thank you in advance.
Gonzalo.

You could try somewhere like

Or something like this plastic collimating lens

I doubt, that you'll find a lens with IR cutoff filter (most likely an custom made interference filter coating) as a standard part from any distributor. I don't see that theer would be any standard application needing this function, except for colour sensors. The same applies to the plastic case. The most promising idea would be to ask TAOS if you can get individual parts for an attractive prize.
