GI-AP

The GI-AP is a state of the art 5-axis CNC polishing system for quality pre- and fine polishing of various optical shapes with Ø up to 500 mm. In combination with ADAPT, Satisloh’s deterministic correction polishing algorithm, it not only ensures highly accurate aspheric surfaces but also that less iterative steps in production are needed.
