Optical Generating Tools Unmounted
Our Metal Bond Tools are precision diamond-abrasive tools designed for the generating stage of optical manufacturing. Supplied without an arbor or hub, these tools allow customers to mount them directly into their own holders or machine interfaces, providing maximum flexibility and compatibility with existing equipment.
These tools are engineered for efficient stock removal and accurate form generation on spherical and aspherical surfaces. High-quality diamond abrasives combined with controlled bond systems ensure consistent cutting performance, excellent form retention, and predictable wear. Unmounted optical generating tools are commonly used on glass, fused silica, quartz, sapphire, ceramics, and other advanced optical materials.
Available in a wide range of diameters, profiles, grit sizes, concentrations, and bond types, unmounted optical generating tools can be customized to meet specific material removal and surface finish requirements. They are ideal for optical manufacturers seeking reliable performance, process control, and adaptability in rough grinding and generating operations.
Exterior Angle Optical Generating Tools
Exterior Angle Optical Generating Tools are precision diamond-abrasive tools designed for generating external angles, chamfers, and edge geometries on optical components. These tools are used during the generating stage to accurately form angled surfaces prior to fine grinding and polishing, ensuring consistent geometry and repeatable results.
Interior Angle Optical Generating Tools
Interior Angle Optical Generating Tools are precision diamond-abrasive tools designed for generating internal angles, grooves, and recessed geometries on optical components. These tools are used during the generating stage to accurately form internal features before fine grinding and polishing, ensuring precise geometry and repeatable results.
Convex Radius Optical Generating Tools
Convex Radius Optical Generating Tools are precision diamond-abrasive tools designed for generating convex spherical and radiused surfaces on optical components. Used during the generating or rough-grinding stage, these tools accurately shape lenses and optical parts prior to fine grinding and polishing, ensuring consistent geometry and reliable downstream processing.
Concave Radius Optical Generating Tools
Concave Radius Optical Generating Tools are precision diamond-abrasive tools engineered for generating concave spherical and radiused surfaces on optical components. These tools are used in the generating or rough-grinding stage to accurately form lens curvatures before fine grinding and polishing, ensuring correct geometry and repeatable results.
