Ideal for Development of Various Optical Elements such as Free-Form Lenses and Mirrors.
Micro machining on free-form surfaces (micro-grooving) is the machining of submicron to micrometer size periodic structures on the free-form surface of a workpiece. It is used to fabricate optical element molds for various free-form lenses and mirrors. The NIC, a microfabrication machine with simultaneous 5-axis and 6-axis 1-nanometer control, can create not only straight lines but also sin curves and other complex periodic structures on free-form surfaces. The machine, which has been designed to minimize thermal displacement and vibration, can process fine grooves, lenses, and other patterns with overwhelming pitch accuracy and quality, even on free-form surfaces.
