DUCTILE MACHINING OF CRYSTALLINE MATERIALS WITH VARIABLE RAKE SINGLE POINT DIAMOND MACHINING

Abstract

The effect of a variable rake machining process such as Fast Tool Servo (FTS) on optical IR crystalline materials isn’t well understood and can be difficult to test. This thesis proposes and develops the concept of using a 'starburst' cut geometry to facilitate the optimization of diamond geometry and cutting parameter choice. This process is then applied in an industrial setting to manufacture hex packed lens arrays of 1mm sag and 30° max slope.
