Large-scale cylinder lenses and mirrors for high-tech lasers

Date Announced: 13 May 2011

New at Berliner Glas is the production of large-scale cylinder lenses and mirrors for laser material processing applications. The components are produced in all standard shapes with a length of up to 1,000mm. These dimensions open up new perspectives in the cost-efficient application of cylindrical optics.

Consequently Berliner Glas has recently expanded its entire optical production chain. Diverse innovative grinding and polishing processes have been added to the shaping CNC processing of large-scale optics. The whole production process is competed with the greatest care and in consideration of the highest requirements on cleanliness.

Berliner Glas is able to offer both plano and cylinder surfaces of the highest quality. In doing so an in-house developed computer-controlled corrective procedure is also used, alongside the renowned MRF process. The high-precision metrological capturing of the surface is always a condition for the success of the correction.

Developments in production and metrology orientated to the customer’s product, close coordination with the customer and knowledge of its requirements lead to innovative cylindrical optics solutions. With these developments, Berliner Glas once again proves its competence in the development and production of cylindrical optics.
