UV LED Lamp Cures up to 100 Optical Lenses per Hour
Fabricating and testing optical components is a very detailed process. It begins by grinding a spherical glass blank using ring tools to create a semifinished lens. Next, the lens’ rough surface is rotated and rubbed against a tool having the desired surface shape.
Finally, a mixture of abrasives and fluid are placed between the lens and tool to polish the lens. Testing verifies that the lens’ final shape meets tolerances.
