Optical Surface Quality
Since beginning of 2012 due to new developments in drive and spindle technology extremely high surface qualities are achievable, which are comparable to such produced on ultra-precision machine tools (UP machines).

Entire surface produced with Ra < 0.01 µm on the HSC machine

Paraboloid
Surface quality achieved by machining Ra < 0.01 µm

Surface quality after milling
with a 4 mm ball nose cutter, surface quality Ra < 10 nm, machining with small step over from tool path to tool path
