The Moore Nanotechnology ultra-precision machining systems support single point diamond turning, deterministic micro-grinding, precision micro-milling, and glass press molding for the production of advanced optics including diamond turning sphere, asphere, freeform, conformal, lens array, and plano surfaces. We offer a diverse line of options and accessories to customize our machining platforms to suit our customer’s specific applications.


The most compact ultra-precision CNC diamond turning lathe. Used for the rapid production of spherical & aspheric optical lenses, mirrors, mold inserts, freeform optics, and even mechanical components.

If your application fits within a 350mm diameter window (with optional riser package), this machine may be the ideal solution for your ultra precision needs.

Achieves both sub-nanometer level surface finishes and sub-micron form accuracies directly off the machine in a wide variety of materials.

This flag ship machine has been proven worldwide to be the most flexible, precise, and user friendly ultra precision freeform diamond turning system available.

With a minimum of three precision linear X, Y, and Z axes, the 650FGv2 is expandable to a five-axis system via optional B & C rotary axes.

With the main work spindle centrally integrated within an oil hydrostatic Y-axis carriage, advanced machining methods such as raster flycutting of linear diffractives and freeforms, micro-prismatic optical structures, micro-milling of aspheric lens arrays as well as Slow Slide Servo (S3) machining of toric, biconic surfaces is achievable.

COMPACT SYSTEM FOR MOLD PIN MANUFACTURING

Machine design specifically engineered for optical mold pin manufacturers seeking the highest quality surface results. Available in both diamond turning and grinding configurations. Expansion of the basic 2-axis system is simple. One can have up to 4 axes of continuous path motion via the addition of C and/or B rotary axes. The C-axis motion control of the work spindle enables toric, biconic, and other freeform surfaces to be machined “on-axis” via our Slow Slide Servo (S3) process. Our Oil Hydrostatic Rotary B can be configured on the Z-axis slide for added versatility and is also part of the 250UPL-MP’s the wheel normal grinding configuration. It features an enhanced 5,000 rpm work spindle design engineered specifically to address nickel mold pin surface quality. This 5K rpm spindle has guaranteed radial runout of less than 10nm and axial runout of less than 4nm up to 3,000 rpm.
