Freeform
Optics
|
Overview
Non Rotationally Symmetric (Freeform) optics are becoming increasingly
widely used for both civil and military applications. Advanced
manufacturing technologies such as Ultra Precision Raster Milling
allow a wide variety of shapes to be created. |
 |
Popular
applications include Printing / Scanning, Head-Up Displays and
Ophthalmics. Taylor Hobson’s market-leading Form Talysurf
measurement system has long been the system of choice for 2D measurement
of rotationally symmetric optics – this technology is now
meeting the challenge of Freeform Optics.
