Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a use of a tool for zonal polishing of optical workpieces, in particular lenses.
  • the present invention relates to the zonal polishing of optical workpieces.
  • the tool (polishing tool) has a polishing surface that is or can be applied only partially to the workpiece to be polished in the region of a contact surface.
  • This contact surface is significantly smaller than the surface of the workpiece to be polished, in particular compared to the radial extent of the workpiece.
  • “Zonal,” in the context of the present invention is understood to mean, in particular, polishing with such a "small” contact surface.
  • so-called cup tools extend with their contact surface or contact edge over the entire radius of a workpiece surface to be polished.
  • mushroom-shaped polishing tools are used in particular, with a curved head of the tool carrying a flexible or elastic polishing element to form a curved polishing surface.
  • EP 1 796 872 B1 shows such a tool, for example.
  • the polishing surface of the tool partially rests on the workpiece in the area of its contact surface, whereby the tilt angle between the surface normal of the contact surface and the rotational axis of the tool is continuously changed, so that the contact surface on the tool moves along a longitude.
  • Zonal polishing is used primarily for precision optics or workpieces with aspherical surfaces, such as mirrors or lenses, and especially for correcting manufacturing errors. Accordingly, it is important to enable the most precise and defined processing possible. Polishing always involves a certain amount of material removal from the workpiece.
  • the DE 10 2004 047 563 A1 discloses a method for polishing a rotating workpiece with a tool comprising a rubber membrane or a plunger with a glued-on polyurethane membrane. The exact structure of the tool will not be discussed in detail.
  • the US 2013/0244553 A1 relates to a precision machining membrane for polishing workpiece surfaces.
  • the membrane is first manufactured by lamination and then pressed into a concave embossed surface using a convex die, thereby curved the membrane.
  • the membrane is used with a tool, with a pressure chamber provided between an end face of the tool and the curved membrane, which can be filled with a pressure-regulated fluid.
  • the US 6,796,877 B1 relates to a polishing machine for polishing an optical workpiece.
  • the polishing machine has two orthogonal pivoting mechanisms, by which a polishing head of the polishing machine can be pivoted.
  • the polishing head can be tilted relative to the surface of the workpiece.
  • the rotation speeds of the polishing head and the workpiece can be controlled.
  • the EP 1 796 872 A1 relates to a method for polishing optical lenses.
  • a tool can be tilted by an angle between the respective surface normal of a workpiece and the tool axis. This allows for both methods in which the angle remains constant throughout the entire movement along the workpiece surface and methods in which the relative angle increases continuously.
  • the US$4,989,316 concerns the surface finishing of an ophthalmic lens blank.
  • a cutting tool is moved along the surface of the workpiece at a constant rate, while the rotational speed of the blank is varied to keep the tangential speed of the blank relative to the tool constant.
  • the US 5,320,006 relates to a method for manufacturing optical lenses.
  • the rotation speed of the lens blank is increased while a cutting tool is moved in the direction of the tool's rotation axis.
  • the US 2003/0017783 A1 relates to a toric tool for polishing an optical surface of a lens and a method for polishing an atoric surface using the tool.
  • the tool comprises an elastic Layer and a polishing layer adhered to it, forming a toric surface for polishing.
  • the elastic layer can be compressed and the polishing layer deformed.
  • the JP 2000-071154 A relates to a manufacturing process for a polishing tool.
  • a polishing foil is pressed onto a tool body.
  • the tool used for zonal polishing has an elastic cap for forming a polishing surface or polishing pad, which cap sits or is stress-free on a curved head of the tool, preferably wherein the cap is pre-formed or shaped to adapt to the curvature of the head.
  • the cap is pre-formed or shaped to adapt to the curvature of the head.
  • the polishing element forms a polishing coating or a polishing film or polishing layer.
  • the polishing surface or the polishing coating formed by the cap or the polishing element generally forms a polishing agent carrier for a polishing agent.
  • the proposed polishing refers to the Polishing with a polishing agent, which is present or used in particular in the form of a suspension containing polishing particles, such as very fine grains, particles, etc.
  • the polishing surface also serves, in particular, to transport the polishing agent into an active gap between the contact surface of the tool and the surface to be polished and/or to distribute or move it therein and/or to rub the polishing agent against the surface.
  • polishing reduces surface roughness and/or can remove cracks in the material that occurred during previous shaping, for example, through grinding. Material is removed in each process. The removed material is transported by the tool or polishing surface, also by means of the polishing agent, out of the effective gap between the polishing surface and the surface to be polished.
  • the present invention relates in particular to the polishing of a workpiece using a tool and a polishing agent.
  • polishing can alternatively be performed without a separate or additional polishing agent, but solely with the tool.
  • the polishing surface can be either porous or non-porous and/or provided with a favorable surface structure or texture in order to achieve the desired polishing effect, particularly with a specific polishing agent for the respective workpiece material.

This is conducive to defined polishing with, in particular, defined material removal.
  • the tool is moved from one edge of the workpiece surface to be polished, across the center, and to the opposite side of the edge.
  • This enables particularly uniform polishing, especially in the visually important and sensitive center of the workpiece.
  • the usual stopping or ending of the polishing process in the center usually leads to uneven and/or undefined material removal.
  • the indentation depth of the particularly elastically deformable polishing surface on the tool is preferably varied, controlled or regulated by appropriately advancing the tool relative to the workpiece during the polishing process, particularly preferably depending on the radial position of the contact surface on the workpiece, the desired diameter of the contact surface, the (desired) contact pressure of the tool on the workpiece and/or the profile of the workpiece, in particular the curvature of the workpiece in the area of the respective contact surface.

  • the tool path W is preferably traversed or followed by the tool 3 while, on the one hand, the tool 3 and, on the other hand, the workpiece 2 rotate.
  • the contact surface A or its center AM then sweeps over the surface 2A to be polished in a particularly spiral-shaped polishing path P, as in Fig. 3
  • the spiral polishing path P is traversed once when the tool 3 or the contact surface A moves from the edge region 2C to the center 2B or to the rotation axis C.
  • the same or a corresponding spiral polishing path P is then traversed again when the tool 3 or the contact surface A continues to move outwards from the center 2B to the edge region 2B, following the tool path W.
  • the device 1 is designed in such a way or a control or regulation is carried out in such a way that a uniform spiral or an at least substantially constant distance PA between adjacent polishing tracks PS of the polishing path P is achieved or traversed, as in Fig. 3
  • the distance PA is therefore particularly preferably kept at least substantially constant.
  • the distance PA can alternatively vary, particularly depending on the workpiece radius at which the center of the contact surface is (straight) located.
  • the diameter AD of the contact surface A is at least 10 or 20 times larger than the spiral spacing or spacing PA of adjacent polishing tracks PS.
  • the tool 3 rotates opposite to the workpiece 2.
  • rotation in the same direction is also possible.
  • tool 3 rotates (much) faster than workpiece 2.
  • the rotational speed of the workpiece 2 and thus also the movement speed of the workpiece 2 along the tool path W are increased starting from the edge 2C to the center 2B and then reduced again towards the edge, while the rotational speed of the tool 3 remains constant.
  • the rotational speed of the workpiece 2 can also be varied during one revolution, in particular depending on the rotational position, the diameter AD of the contact surface A, the contact pressure of the tool 3 on the workpiece 2, the indentation depth E of the polishing surface 9, and/or the profile of the workpiece 2, in order to achieve particularly uniform material removal or a desired polishing result. This allows, in particular, highly precise polishing.
  • the device 1 is designed in such a way, or the proposed method is implemented in such a way, that the size or diameter AD of the contact surface A is kept at least substantially constant during the polishing process. This promotes uniform and defined material removal.
  • the size or diameter AD of the contact surface A is also determined in particular by the Fig. 4
  • the schematically indicated indentation depth E of the polishing surface 9 is determined by appropriate infeed of the tool 3 during the polishing process, but also depends on the surface shape of the workpiece 2, in particular the respective curvature conditions and the curvature of the polishing surface 9.
  • the indentation depth E of the polishing surface 9 and thus also the size or diameter AD of the contact surface A are varied accordingly.
  • the indentation depth E of the polishing surface 9 is varied by appropriately advancing the tool 3 during a polishing process in such a way that, in particular even with different curvatures of the surface 2A to be polished, particularly preferably with an aspherical surface 2A, an at least substantially constant diameter AD of the contact surface A is achieved. This contributes to uniform and defined material removal throughout the entire polishing process.
  • the diameter AD of the contact surface A decreases from the edge 2C to the center 2B and increases in the opposite direction.
  • the speed of the C-axis i.e. the rotational speed of the workpiece 2 is preferably derived from calculated dwell times of the contact surface A over certain partial areas of the surface 2A to be polished.
  • the path speed or rotational speed of the workpiece 2 is preferably changed within one revolution. This allows different polishing or dwell times to be realized, particularly within one revolution, depending on the required error correction.
  • the speed of the X-axis is adjusted so that the desired constant spiral pitch PA or spacing between adjacent polishing tracks PS remains constant per revolution. Accordingly, the feed in the X-direction is directly coupled to the speed or number of revolutions of the C-axis, or vice versa.
  • the optimal dwell time of the tool 3 or the contact surface A is determined in advance by means of a simulation in local areas on the surface 2A to be polished. Subsequently, the corresponding path positions and path speeds are determined from the calculated local dwell times.
  • the optimal indentation depth E of the polishing surface 9 or the infeed of the tool 3 on the workpiece 2 is optimally determined depending on the tool 3 and the geometry of the surface 2 to be polished, in particular by means of corresponding calculations, estimates and/or measurements, wherein the indentation depth E is adjusted during the polishing process in particular so that the diameter AD of the contact surface A remains as constant as possible.
  • the proposed polishing tool 3 is characterized in particular by a cap 6 or a cap structure with defined spring and damping properties
  • the size of the contact surface A can be influenced very precisely by the indentation depth E.
  • the indentation depth E is preferably more than 0.1 mm and/or less than 0.8 mm.
  • the size or diameter AD of the contact surface A is preferably more than 1 mm, in particular more than 3 mm, and/or less than 25 mm, in particular less than 15 or 10 mm.
  • zonal polishing of the workpiece 2 is carried out.
  • “Zonal” is to be understood as meaning that the contact surface A is significantly smaller than the surface 2A of the workpiece 2 to be polished, in particular compared to the radial extent of the workpiece 2.
  • the mean or largest diameter AD of the contact surface A is significantly smaller than the mean or largest radius of the workpiece 2.
  • the mean or largest radius of the workpiece 2 is at least a factor of 2, 3 or 5 larger than the mean or largest diameter AD of the contact surface A.
  • the device 1 also has a feed for polishing agent (not shown), as is usual in polishing machines, so that the polishing agent can be fed in the desired manner during polishing.
  • the proposed tool 3, the proposed device 1, and/or the proposed method can be used in particular for polishing precision optics or aspherical surfaces or other optical workpieces, wherein the surface shape can preferably be measured before polishing, allowing a desired surface shape to be achieved by polishing. This is also referred to as corrective polishing.
  • polishing can be carried out with an accuracy of 10 to 100 nm.
  • Tools 3 with smaller radii of curvature of the polishing surface 9, in particular with radii of curvature of less than 100 mm, particularly preferably less than 50 mm, are preferably used for correction purposes.
  • Tools 3 with larger radii of curvature of the polishing surface 9, in particular up to 1000 mm, are preferably used for pre-polishing.
  • the surface to be machined 2A is preferably measured and then corrective polishing is carried out.
  • the proposed device 1 and the proposed methods can in principle be used for both pre-polishing and corrective polishing.
