Machining of glass and ceramics
Glass prisms
Machining of optical glass prisms with extreme angular precision below 2 arc seconds, also for large prisms. Roughing and finishing in one set-up on 5‑axis and respectively 3‑axis machine
Test workpiece for flow cell made of zirconium oxide,
stabilized ZrO2 – Y2O3, about 25 mm x 25 mm, Vickers hardness HV 10: 13 GPA
Machining of glass for medical applications
Also very tiny contours, e.g. fluid channels, may be machined with high precision in glass.
