We provide humanized customization services, from simple addition of fittings, different lengths of leads to complex redesign of valves or components to meet the needs of special applications, whether it is cartridge type pinch valves, multi-port high pressure rotary valves or customization of special structural materials, we are able to produce according to your needs!
CNC machining of optical parts from prototype to production
Given the nature of the optical industry, where multiple trials are often required before volume production can begin, it is critical to work with a manufacturing partner that has broad flexibility in production capabilities. Our customers often require a rapid transition from optical part prototypes to volume production, and at xavier, we are well positioned to fulfill these requirements.
As a state-of-the-art CNC machine shop, we are capable of handling rapid prototyping of individual parts to volume production of up to 100,000 parts. In addition, our state-of-the-art CNC lathe facilities allow us to offer our customers shorter part lead times.
Our CNC Machining Capabilities for the Optical Industry
Our machine shop is equipped with Swiss-turned CNC lathes and 5-axis CNC machines that offer great flexibility to manufacture customized optical parts and assemblies with high precision and quality.
5 Axis CNC Milling
Our state-of-the-art 5-axis CNC machining centers offer several advantages over traditional optical manufacturing equipment. They significantly reduce tool wear, resulting in shorter machining times and tighter tolerances than traditional diamond turning techniques. These machining centers are particularly well suited for manufacturing optical components with complex geometries, including curved aspheres and free-form surfaces, as well as parts with bevels, holes, channels and other complex features. In addition, the precision machining centers accelerate tooling production for glass forming and other processes, resulting in shorter lead times
Swiss Turning
Swiss-style lathes utilize a unique method of pushing the workpiece through the guide bushings to achieve both axial and rotary motion. This design minimizes deflection by keeping the tool near the guide bush, regardless of the length of the part. The Swiss-style machining process is particularly well suited for producing long, thin and complex parts. Through our Swiss CNC machining services, we prioritize the implementation of sound quality procedures and standards throughout the manufacturing and supply chain processes to ensure on-time delivery of high-quality parts.
