Abstract
The invention relates to a method for outputting a manufacturing file for producing an optical element (100) from a curable material (50) by using an additive manufacturing technology, comprising the steps of:—acquiring the desired geometry of the optical element,—obtaining a discretization of the desired geometry in volume units described by data relative to position parameters of the volume units and to the dimension of the volume units,—associating at least a volume unit with a kinetic parameter that relates to the curing pace imposed to the curable material of the volume unit,—producing, using at least one processor, a manufacturing file comprising said data and said kinetic parameter for manufacturing at least the optical element, and—outputting said manufacturing file.
