Abstract

This paper discusses the mechanism of processing velocity in computer-controlled optical sub-aperture tool polishing/grinding. By introducing a removal function describing the movement of a pad, an equation expressing the relation between the material removal and the process parameters such as the relative velocity is established and simulated respectively, followed by experiments to confirm the theoretical model. The results obtained theoretically and experimentally indicated that the velocity is a key parameter affecting the manufacturing process besides the known dwell-time, which is helpful to optimize the process and realize more efficiently optical fabrication.
