Applications

1. Optical moldmaking: the principal application of UTS2 is the manufacture of optical mold inserts, including aspheric, freeform, and microstructured geometries. Hardened steel can now be machined directly without nickel plating. These hardened-steel inserts are used for injection molding plastic lenses or molding glass lenses and are more durable than conventional nickel-plated inserts. 2. Optical lens manufacture: some glasses, including N-BK7 and N-FKS, can be cut directly, for example for rapid prototyping. 3. Precision mechanical components: precision-mechanical applications such as high-quality watch parts, mirror components, or laboratory standards. 4. Lens-group mold inserts: for metal or plastic processing.

Key Features

UTS2 enables direct cutting of steel and some glass materials with precision single-crystal diamond turning tools. The piezoelectrically driven ultrasonic assist system feeds the tool in a linear oscillating motion at a distinctive frequency of 100 000 Hz, extending diamond tool life by an order of magnitude. Its compact design allows UTS2 to be retrofitted easily to any commercially available precision or ultraprecision machine. A mechanical height-adjustment device is also available for machines without a vertical axis. Based on a plug-and-play principle, UTS2 offers simple, intuitive operation and immediate, efficient integration. Diamond tools can be purchased from commercial suppliers, without restriction on cutting-edge geometry. Processing benefits: 1. Improved tool cooling inhibits chemical interactions and prevents diamond-tool graphitization at high temperatures. 2. Reduced friction and pressure lower tool wear. Technical advantages: UTS2 follows the principle of ultrasonic-assisted machining, setting the diamond tool into linear oscillation in the cutting direction at 100 000 Hz. High-frequency vibration repeatedly separates the cutting tool from the material. Contact between the diamond tool and material lasts only approximately 2 μs per cycle, accounting for 20% of total processing time. Cyclic tool contact repeats 100 000 times per second. This technology delivers substantial benefits, including improved cooling and suppression of chemical wear reactions, prevents diamond-tool graphitization at high temperatures, significantly reduces diamond-tool wear, and enables direct cutting of stainless steel.
