Our Supporting Process Infrastructure
We wrap a highly specialized suite of auxiliary technologies directly around our core diamond machining and molding solutions:
- Galvanic Nickel-Phosphorous (NiP) Plating: An in-house galvanic NiP plating line optimized for diamond-machining compatibility. We produce high-purity NiP layers completely free of voids, ensuring a flawless surface layer ready for sub-micron SPDT machining.
- Precision 5-Axis CNC Milling: High-velocity machining engineered for complex optical housings and barrels, structural components, custom fixture engineering, fabrication of high-precision mold bases and rough machining of all optical components.
- Automated Saw Dicing: High-accuracy wafer dicing and component singulation utilizing ultra-thin blades. Optimized for cleanly separating high-density polymer lens arrays and fragile substrates without edge chipping or delamination.
- Plasma Surface Treatment: Atmospheric and vacuum plasma treatment used to clean optical substrates, alter surface topography at the molecular level, and optimize surface energy for downstream coatings or structural bonding.
The Zero-Tolerance In-House Loop
Standard manufacturing chains suffer from "tolerance stack-up" because different vendors use different references and standards. Our integrated workflow renders conventional distributed supply chains obsolete for high-end optical engineering.
- Unbroken Coordinate Systems: Because raw stock preparation, galvanic plating, ultra-precision machining, and post-dicing are managed by a single engineering team, your component maintains a single reference datum throughout its lifecycle.
- Closed-Loop Metrology Feedback: Every auxiliary process feeds directly into our sub-micron metrology ecosystem. If a mold base requires micro-milling or a substrate requires NiP enhancement, the results are instantly verified before moving to the next machine.
