10+ years of experience
American Moore single point diamond lathe
One-stop Machining and Finishing
Single point diamond turning (SPDT) is a CNC truning process that use a highly precised single-point diamond cutting tool to remove material from a rotating workpiece, resulting in ultra-precision surfaces and geometries. it can be used for creating optic components from prototypes to productions.
Diamond turning can make parts with very high precision, Surface roughness can reach 4 nm RMS.
Diamond turning is compatible with a wide range of materials including metals, plastics, and ceramics.
Diamond turning optic parts can lead to cost savings without tooling needs when prototyping in small batches.
Diamond turning can make the optic components in weeks to save the time make the tooling.
Single point diamond turning (SPDT) is ideal for making optic components used in various industries, including aerospace, defense, telecommunications, and medical devices.
We have already customed a lot of optic components which are used in various industries as below, include off-axis parobalic mirror, Flate metal-plated mirror, Free form metal mirror and micro lens. we can make these optic components both for prototypes and productions.
Optic Components | Material | Surface Figure (RMS) | Surface Quality(S-D) | Surface Roughness(RMS) | Coating |
Off-axis parabolic Mirror(OAP) | 6061-T6 | 1/20λ | 60-40 | <10nm | UV coating |
Flat Metal-coated Mirrors | aluminum or quartz | 1/10λ | 40-20 | <10nm | Gold, Sliver, Aluminum coating |
Reflective Beam Expander | 6061-T6 | 1/10λ | 60-40 | <10nm | NA |
Hollow Retroreflectors | K9 glass or Aluminum Alloy | 1/10λ | 40-20 | <10nm | Gold, Sliver, Aluminum coating |
Micro lens | Acrylic(PMMA) | - | - | 1um | NA |
Send us the 3D or 2D drawing with right format(Stp, CAD) and project information such as volume, deadline.
Within 24 hours, we will send you DFM feedback, Once confirm, we will send final quotation with lead time.
Once your order is placed, we will initiate the production of your prototype or commence the manufacturing.
We Check dimensions of the parts using the proper measuring instruments, such as roughness test, surface figure test.
Pack your products with a robust packing Standard and ship to you by international express.
Most frequent questions and answers
There are several types of diamond turning include Normal turning, off-axis turning, fly-cutting, and free form machining.
Diamond turning can achive small tolerance range from 1nm to 10nm.
we could make a optic ptototype in less than 2 weeks which depends on the complexity of products.
The cost of a diamond turned optic prototype cost range from $1000 to $5000, depends on the size and geometry of the part. Depending on the project’s specifications, diamond turning can be a cost-effective and affordable option over other optical manufacturing methods which need expensive tooling.
Both plastics and metals can be used for diamond turning as below:
Metals: copper, aluminum, nickel, and brass
plastics: Acrylic(PMMA)
Infrared materials: germanium, silicon, chalcogenide glass.
