    Abstract: A baffled optical waveguide has a body shaped to partially or wholly surround a part or parts being processed by being illuminated with light. The body has optical baffles therein that define light channels through which the light travels as it transits the baffled optical waveguide. Outlets of the light channels are adjacent an opening in the body which receives an area or areas of the parts or parts being processed. Each light channel homogenizes the light as it transits through that light channel. The optical baffles that define the light channels keep light from diverging in the baffled optical waveguide as it transits through the light channels. In an aspect, a part (or parts) is processed by illuminating it with light via the baffled optical waveguide.
