Core Optical Technologies

Ultra-Precision Machine Tools

Our optical machining relies on advanced machine platforms featuring aerostatic spindles, hydrostatic guide rails, thermal error compensation systems, and active vibration isolation. These technologies form the foundation of Optical Component Precision Machining With Ultra Accuracy.

Diamond Turning

Single‑point diamond turning produces optical surfaces directly on non‑ferrous metals and plastics. This process achieves surface roughness Ra0.01‑0.05μm and roundness 0.0005mm, eliminating the need for post‑polishing in many applications.

Ion Beam Machining

For components requiring atomic‑level surface modification, ion beam machining provides nanometer‑level surface correction with accuracy ±0.0001mm. This is essential for high‑precision optical components used in laser systems and space instruments.

Laser Micromachining

Laser processing enables micro‑hole drilling with diameters from 0.005mm to 0.1mm and position accuracy ±0.001mm. This capability supports optical components requiring precision apertures and alignment features.

Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP)

For final surface finishing, CMP achieves roughness Ra0.001‑0.01μm on optical materials, producing surfaces suitable for the most demanding optical applications.

Precision Assembly

Submicron‑level positioning accuracy in assembly ensures that optical components maintain their alignment and performance throughout their operational life.

Process Environment

Temperature Control

Our optical machining workshop maintains constant temperature at ±0.5°C. This stability is essential for Optical Component Precision Machining With Ultra Accuracy, as thermal expansion of even 0.1°C can alter dimensions by several micrometres on large optical components.

Humidity Control

Humidity is maintained at 40‑60% to prevent moisture absorption in optical materials and to maintain consistent machine performance. Controlled humidity also reduces the risk of surface oxidation on finished optical components.

Cleanroom Standards

Class 1000 dust‑free level ensures that particles do not contaminate optical surfaces during machining and inspection. Particle contamination can cause scratches, digs, and scatter that degrade optical performance.

Vibration Isolation

Our anti‑vibration foundation maintains vibration amplitude below 0.1μm. This is critical for Optical Component Precision Machining With Ultra Accuracy, as even micro‑vibrations can introduce tool marks and surface errors that are visible under interferometric inspection.
