PRECESS Polishing process<\/h1>
Realistic process modelling for more precise polishing results<\/h6>\n<\/div><\/div>
<\/div>

Since the 1960s, polishing calculations in optical manufacturing have been based on simplified motion models. The PRECESS method, developed by Mandler Engineering, takes a fundamentally new approach: it takes into account the actual machine kinematics, including the oscillation movement, directly in the process and polishing pad calculation for the first time.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Challenge<\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n

Traditional calculation models assume static or simplified motion sequences. However, modern polishing machines work almost exclusively with superimposed oscillating movements. The consequence: systematic deviations between the model and reality, which lead to errors in process design.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n 02<\/span>\n OUR APPROACH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n

Solution<\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n

The PRECESS process models material removal, taking into account the actual machine kinematics. In addition, dynamic pitch-layer calculation makes it possible, for the first time, to transfer modern simulation methods to classical pitch tools \u2013 a combination that opens up completely new manufacturing possibilities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>
