Optical Polishing
Precision abrasive polishing solutions for optical glass, fused silica, quartz, sapphire and fiber-optic components requiring ultra-smooth, low-defect optical surfaces.
APPLICATION OVERVIEW
HANS provides precision polishing solutions for optical glass, fused silica, fused quartz, sapphire, crystal, optical fibers, ceramic ferrules and other precision optical materials. Applications include lens and prism polishing, optical flat finishing, quartz component polishing, fiber-optic connector end-face finishing and progressive removal of fine grinding marks prior to final optical-quality finishing.
KEY CHALLENGES
Optical surfaces require extremely low roughness, minimal scratches and pits, controlled flatness and low subsurface damage. Inappropriate abrasive particle size, polishing pressure or consumable selection can introduce fine scratches, edge defects, contamination and surface irregularities that affect optical transmission and component performance.
RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
HANS offers diamond lapping films, silicon carbide films, aluminium oxide polishing films, cerium oxide polishing films and pads, precision polishing discs, belts and rolls, diamond compounds and fine polishing consumables for progressive optical surface finishing and fiber-optic end-face preparation.
