The present invention provides a lenticular lens and method for manufacturing the lens, and in particular when the lens is a lenticular lens web, such that finishing operations (e.g., cutting, laminating, etc.) and various end-use applications of the lens (e.g., labeling) can be achieved or accommodated in-line with the manufacture of the lens web. A lenticular pattern-forming device comprising a housing that is rotatable about a central longitudinal axis is disclosed. The housing has an outer surface having a groove pattern. The groove pattern includes circumferentially and longitudinally extending grooves on the outer surface and the grooves have substantially equal groove widths. The longitudinally extending grooves are substantially parallel with the central longitudinal axis and grooves cover the outer surface of the housing. In addition, the invention further includes a method of using the lenticular pattern-forming device to produce a lenticular lens web, which can be used to make a lenticular image web. The image web can be used to create end products such as wallpaper, banners, labels and the like. |
