The general appearance of optical spherical lenses: 1. Double convex 2. One convex and one concave 3. One convex and one flat 4. Double concave 5. One concave and one flat (as shown in the figure)
Classification of optical lenses: Glasses with similar chemical composition and optical properties are also distributed in adjacent positions on the Abbe diagram. The Abbe diagram of Schott Glass Factory has a set of straight lines and curves, which divide the Abbe diagram into many areas and classify optical glasses; for example, crown glasses K5, K7, and K10 are in the K area, and flint glasses F2, F4, and F5 are in the F area. Symbols in glass names: F stands for flint K stands for crown B stands for boron BA stands for barium LA stands for lanthanum N stands for lead-free P stands for phosphorus
Optical cold processing procedures: milling → fine grinding → polishing → cleaning → edge grinding → coating → ink coating → gluing
1. Milling (barren folding/ball milling/rough grinding): The first step of lens grinding is to remove uneven bubbles and impurities on the lens surface (about 0.05-0.08mm), which plays a shaping role. As shown below:
●Principle: As shown in the figure above, the cutting edge of the diamond grinding wheel passes through the vertex of the lens. The axis of the grinding wheel and the axis of the lens intersect at point 0. The axis of the grinding tool rotates around its own axis at high speed, and the lens rotates around its own axis at low speed. The envelope of the motion trajectory forms a spherical surface.
Abandoned folding processing equipment: QM0.8A, manufacturer: Korea Times, no chamfering function, relatively low accuracy.
CG2.0, manufacturer: Korea Guangjin, has chamfering function and relatively high accuracy.
Measuring tools: center thickness detection measuring tool (micrometer); spherical R value detection measuring tool (vector height meter); equal thickness detection measuring tool.
2. Fine grinding (sand hanging): eliminate the damaged layer of the milled lens, reduce the concave and convex layer on the lens surface, and fix the R value (aperture, Newton ring)
Principle: The lens is in the sand hanging dish (made of diamond pellets selected according to the material), the sand hanging dish rotates at high speed along its own axis, and the lens rotates at high speed along its own axis and swings back and forth, as shown in the figure below. The diamond pellets grind the lens surface, thereby reducing the depth of the concave and convex layer on the lens surface, and further improving the accuracy of the curvature radius or flatness of the lens surface.
Process: Material collection → First sanding on one side → Second sanding on one side → First sanding on the second side → Second sanding on the second side → Sanding inspection → Flow into grinding
Sanding equipment: Small spherical single-piece sanding equipment; Large spherical single-piece sanding equipment. (As shown below)
Testing tools: center thickness testing gauge (micrometer); surface accuracy testing (original), as shown below:
The single-piece spring plate process (fine grinding) is shown below:
The multi-plate process (fine grinding) is shown below:
3. Polishing (grinding): Polish the finely ground lens once. This process is mainly to make the appearance better. Note: Some customers do two polishings, the first one is rough polishing and the second one is fine polishing. Most customers in the market only need one process.
Purpose of polishing:
a. Remove the damaged layer of fine grinding to make the lens surface meet the appearance limit requirements specified in the drawing.
b. Fine-tune the surface shape to achieve the curvature radius R value specified in the drawing. {Meet the requirements of the surface number and the aperture local error (yas)}
c. Grinding is divided into single-piece grinding and multi-piece grinding
Grinding processing principle:
1. Mechanical grinding theory: It is believed that the cutting of cerium oxide particles is similar to the cutting of diamond particles of CG and sand hanging.
2. Chemical action theory: The protruding peaks of the glass convex and concave layer are removed by hydrolysis.
3. Thermal surface flow theory: Frictional heat causes thermal melting flow, resulting in smooth surface.
4. The above three theories are correct to varying degrees. Based on the comprehensive effect of the three, a fourth view is now proposed, that is, grinding is an intricate process of mechanical, chemical, and physical effects.
Principle: The lens rotates at high speed along its own axis in the grinding dish (made of polyurethane glue), and the grinding dish rotates at high speed along its own axis and swings back and forth, as shown in the figure below. Through the grinding of tiny particles in polyurethane, the flow of grinding liquid on the lens surface, and the hydrolysis reaction of the glass on the lens surface, the concave and convex layer and crack layer after sand hanging are removed, the lens surface is made transparent and smooth, and the geometric shape of the surface is accurately corrected.
Grinding process equipment: small spherical grinding equipment, large spherical grinding equipment.
Inspection tools: center thickness detection gauge; surface accuracy detection aperture number (original device); surface accuracy detection As (interferometer)
Impact:
Grinding machine speed and pressure, mechanical accuracy, tooling, grinding powder quality, grinding fluid concentration, cleanliness, pH, glass type and surface roughness after fine grinding, etc. All have an important impact on grinding efficiency and lens appearance quality.
4. Cleaning: Clean the polishing powder and residue on the surface of the polished lens to prevent agglomeration.
5. Edge grinding: Grind the original lens outer diameter to the specified outer diameter.
6. Coating: Coat the surface of the lens that needs to be coated with one or more layers of colored film or other film.
7. Inking: Coat the outer edge of the lens that needs to be coated with a layer of black ink to prevent reflection.
8. Gluing: Use glue to combine two lenses with opposite R values and the same outer diameter material. Special process: multi-piece processing (disc processing) and small spherical surface processing (20-axis equipment) wire cutting. Depending on the different production processes, the processes may vary slightly, such as the order of inking and gluing.
●There are many special processes:
a. Double coring, that is, add one coring after rough grinding, and coring again after grinding.
Scope of application: lenses with edge thickness less than 0.3mm after grinding
Purpose: 1. Increase edge thickness after grinding and reduce edge damage during grinding;
2. Improve aperture stability during grinding
b. Coring after gluing
Scope of application: lenses that must be cored after gluing due to special requirements of the customer. If the customer does not specify, this process will not be arranged
Purpose: 1. Completely remove excess glue on the edge of the lens
2. There will be no bright lines after blackening (inking)
c. Trimming lenses. The process of trimming lenses is quite diverse.
The lens diameter is large (>¢20mm) and the margin for trimming is large (>3mm), and the edges can be trimmed after folding;
The lens diameter is small (<¢20mm), the trimming margin is large (>3mm), and the edge is trimmed after taking out the core;
The lens diameter is small (<¢20mm), the trimming margin is small (<3mm), and the core and trimming can be completed in one go;
For ink-coated lenses, if the trimmed edge is not inked, it must be inked before trimming.
Trimming of cemented lenses must be done after coupling
Abrasive powder is one of the main materials used in the grinding process. Its performance and the reasonable matching of other process conditions have an important impact on the processing efficiency and surface of the grinding parts.
1. Although large-particle abrasive powder is conducive to mechanical grinding, it is not efficient due to its small effective area. On the contrary, if the abrasive liquid particles are too small, although the effective area is large, it is not conducive to micro-cutting and the grinding efficiency is not high.
2. The grinding concentration is generally measured by specific gravity, which is set to 1.015-1.025 (g/cm³). The concentration of hard nitrate is larger, and the concentration of soft nitrate is relatively smaller, but the concentration of the grinding liquid should also be reasonably adjusted according to the surface finish of the lens.
● The high-speed rotation of the lens during processing requires that the abrasive liquid must be fully injected. The abrasive powder is easy to block the pores and gaps during grinding. The grinding mold should be cleaned frequently with a copper brush or toothbrush.
Grinding leather (polyurethane polishing leather, polishing pad)
●The chemical name is polyurethane, also known as polyurethane. Abrasive leather is a kind of abrasive and polishing material with good microporous structure, good strength, wear resistance and heat resistance, moderate hardness and plasticity, and high grinding efficiency and long service life. Most of its colors are: light yellow or skin color (mostly used for hard nitrate), white (general nitrate), pink (general nitrate, single or multiple), reddish brown or dark red (multiple or large mirror plates), gray (soft nitrate).
●Abrasive leather is divided into 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.25mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm, 2.5mm, 3.0mm according to its thickness. Generally, thin abrasive leather (0.5mm or 0.8mm) is used for single-piece processing, while thick abrasive leather is suitable for large lenses or multi-piece processing mirror plates with larger diameters. For processing flat glass or substrate glass and ITO-related products, 1.5mm-3.0mm thick abrasive leather is often used, which has better grinding effect.
PH value of grinding fluid:
●The pH value of the grinding fluid is very important for grinding. It should be tested regularly. Generally, a weak acid is considered to be better, especially for LaK, LaSF, SK, SF and other nitrate materials. The pH value should be specified in the operating standards. Domestically, the pH value of 5.8-6.5 is considered to be the best. At present, the most commonly used citric acid (C6H8O7H2O) for adjusting the pH value of the grinding fluid on the market is to effectively eliminate "water marks" and frog skin (orange peel, Araby), etc.
Quality requirements for grinding processing:
●1. Dimensions: The dimensions required for grinding processing are mainly thickness and the number of Newton rings (aperture) (R value).
●(1) Thickness (T): Mainly controlled by grinding time, pressure, and speed.
●(2) R value: The specified R value is achieved by changing the R value of the grinding dish.
●Appearance (E)
Defective contents include: sand grain, scars (scratches), spots (pits), jagged edges, cracks, and material defects (M)
Regularity of Newton's rings:
●Mainly determined by: tool accuracy, mechanical accuracy, and auxiliary materials (determined by grinding fluid, grinding skin, and mechanical parameters)
