Abstract: A method for measuring geometric errors of a numerical control turntable based on a four-station laser tracer system includes: establishing a self-calibration coordinate system and calibrating positions of tracking interferometers; respectively placing each of target lenses at three non-coplanar points that are above the numerical control turntable and keep certain distances from the numerical control turntable, controlling the numerical control turntable to rotate at a certain angular interval ?j, and based on positions of the tracking interferometers being known after calibration, solving coordinates of each of measurement points in the self-calibration coordinate system using a non-linear least square method; establishing a turntable coordinate system; perform a conversion between the turntable coordinate system and the self-calibration coordinate system; separating six geometric errors of the numerical control turntable using spatial position errors of the three points at a same position and using the lin

Abstract: A polishing device for optical elements includes: a tool shank (1), and a polishing disc base; wherein the tool shank (1) is connected to the polishing disc base and is mounted on a tool shaft of a numerical-controlled processing device; wherein a polishing film (3) is stuck on the polishing disc base; the polishing disc base is a profiling polishing disc base (7), a cylinder polishing disc base (2), a profiling polishing disc base (12) or a spherical polishing disc base (8); wherein the tool shank (1) is independent and universal, thereby reducing the processing cost of the polishing device. A polishing method for optical elements is based on the shapes mentioned above of the polishing disc base, including steps of: fixing a polishing disc connecting rod (11); sticking a polishing film (3); trimming the polishing film (3); and polishing an unprocessed work piece (6).

Abstract: An apparatus for polishing or lapping an aspherical surface of a work piece comprises a tool rotatable about an axis, the working surface area of the tool being smaller than the work piece, and an arrangement by means of which the tool and the work piece are adjustable relative to each other in all three directions in space, by means of which the orientation of the tool relative to the work piece is adjustable about at least two axes, and by means of which the work piece is rotatable about an axis.

Abstract: In the case of a method for producing an optical element with at least one curved surface by spherical separation, a spherical-cap-like separating body with cutting elements is used. The separating body is in this case moved in a pivoting movement through a basic body or the basic body is moved through the separating body, a relative rotational movement taking place between the basic body and the separating body with a rotating axis which passes through the center point (M) of the pivoting movement.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an arrangement for regenerating rotating precision grinding tools with a dressing tool and with a loose abrading medium suspended in a liquid and introduced into a gap between the dressing tool and the grinding tool. The dressing tool has approximately the negative desired form of the grinding tool and the dressing tool has bonded abrading grains in this surface region. Preferably, the grinding tool is rotated on the work spindle and the dressing tool is also moved.
