Key Features
- Unrivaled manufacturing accuracy: lens centration of better than 0.5 μm
- Combination of turning machine and the world leader OptiCentric® measurement system
- Mounted lens is measured from both sides: as a result measurement is faster and more stable and non-transparent lenses can be measured
- Additional equipment with tactile and optical sensors
- Vertical design of the ATS 400 means it can hold heavy samples up to 30 kg with large diameters up to 400 mm
- Ultra-precise axes with hydrostatic bearings, high rigidity for processing steel and Invar cells
- Intuitive, manual adjustment of the lens, because the chuck's shift and tilt functions are separate from each other (plan/calotte principle)
Applications
- Lenses for stepper optics
- Lenses for microscope and endoscope optics
- Mounted infrared lenses for safety applications
- Mounted aspherical lenses
- Lenses and components for high-quality digital camera lenses
- Lenses which cannot be glued in cell, e.g. for space applications
- Imaging optics for UV applications
- Optical assemblies with very high accuracy requirements
