#1: Diamond turning (2 or 3-axes) Direct lathing of optics and optical molds including freeform non-axi-symmetrical designs
#2: Tool Normal diamond turning (3 or 4-axes) Utilizing a contouring B-axis for freeform shapes in challenging materials, such as silicon.
#3: Precision grinding and milling (2 or 3-axes) Utilizing a 15,000RPM spindle in the vertical orientation for cross-axis grinding for the direct machining of precision glass optics.
#4: Freeform grinding and milling (3 or 4-axes) Utilizing a 50,000RPM spindle and a rotary B-axis for parallel grinding or 45° grinding for optical mold inserts, such as tungsten carbide for glass pressing applications.
