G-S Plastic Optics recently expanded its diamond turning capabilities with a new Precitech Nanoform 200 machine. This two-axis aspheric contouring machine with real-time operating system will be used for single-point diamond turning. The work center is also equipped with a slow tool servo that enables the company to rapidly manufacture large departure freeform optics. By bringing this capability in-house, the company can offer improved operational efficiency and delivery times, specifically in rapid prototyping and limited production runs of polymer optics.
