Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Surface Topography Generation in Slow Tool Servo Ultra-Precision Machining of Freeform Surfaces

Freeform surfaces are featured with superior optical and physical properties and are widely adopted in advanced optical systems. Slow tool servo (STS) ultra-precision machining is an enabling manufacturing technology for fabrication of non-rotationally symmetric surfaces. This work presents a theore...
