Precision Optics Surfacing Center SCG 100 Efficient grinding of spheres and aspheres

Introducing the Surfacing Center SCG 100 Your requirements for high-performance grinding solutions are constantly changing. The solution: the Surfacing Center SCG 100, a compact and a ­ ttractively priced grinding machine which comes precisely equipped to your current requirements – whether spherical or aspherical. Several spindle configuration and other options are available to tailor your investment to your specific requirements. The modular SCG 100 platform has the capability to combine various spindle configurations. This includes direct drive grinding spindles. The optional packages offer...

Modular kinematics and computer suppor­ ted setup make it possible to manufacture the whole spectrum, from flat surfaces and spheres to complex aspherical lenses, in an economical way. All three versions come with an optional fast automation which includes automatic lens detection, automatic setup cycles and multi-purpose workpiece magazines. Your hands and mind are free to focus on the next step in your work schedule. Solid foundation The machine has a stiff cast-iron base for kinematics with up to 5 axes and 5 spindles. As an option, you can choose direct-driven rough- and fine-grinding spindles...

In-process metrology The consistent high performance and tight process control is accomplished with our integrated metrology package. The process control compensates for tool wear and process drift. The — CT Control automatically checks the center thickness of the lens and makes adjustments. The — Tool Control recognizes the grin­ ding tools and reduces significantly the set-up and correction times. The — Feed Control and its first-touch technology reduce the air cutting time during the tool approach to a minimum – saving valuable process time. The Feed Control also optimizes the process during...
