IN THIS TECHNICAL PAPER...
Learn about developments in software, hardware and processing techniques required for manufacturing freeform optics with stringent part tolerances.
- Read about the capabilities of PROSurf, a CAM software for freeform optics, and UltraSurf software, which controls the UltraSurf non-contact metrology system.
- Learn how datums play a crucial role when processing freeforms as well as during measurements.
- Learn about the .OPM file, developed by OptiPro, and how it makes it easier to align an error map to the part surface.
