Check out this smoke show. ABTech is taking transmission and valve assembly to the next level of precision accuracy while collaborating with a leading transmission valve manufacturer. A high precision, air-bearing based, diamond-turning lathe and metrology station for matching ID to OD size to 50 millionths of an inch has been successfully created.

The ability to measure the outside diameter of the spool for size, roundness, and concentricity, and then apply the desired clearance in preperation for boring the sleeve to match, allowed the customer to produce a precision valve that has not previously been available on the market. Using ABTech's air-bearing linear slides, high-speed air-bearing spindle, rotary air-bearing table, central machine tool controller, and custom software, engineering and manufacturing this custom work cell was quick. And the end result was a precision valve assembly that will last longer in the transmission and produce a higher quality rebuild for the industry.

When NASA scientists and the Columbia University Nevis Astrophysics lab needed an ultra-precision machine to safely produce cylindrical optics modules for their program that had been long delayed, ABTech stepped in to help. ABTech was given the challenge to develop a multifunctional machine that would act as a diamond turning lathe, an indexing tool for raster grinding, and an assembly station all in one, which is discussed and shown in this brief video.

The extremely high accuracies of the air-bearing slides and spindles were dedicated by the requirements of the assembled lens module. ABTech exceeded the accuracy requirements and achieved 0.5-micron straightness (uncompensated) of the Z-axis over 700 mm of travel and position accuracies to 0.25 micron. ABTech, designed, manufactured and delivered two air-bearing based diamond turning drum lathes in 6 months putting the program back on schedule. The machines performed flawlessly during the assembly and testing of the lens modules for the NuSTAR telescope.

[Each machine features: Linear stacked air-bearing stages; air-bearing work holding and tailstock spindles for lathe operation or holding position of the optic during assembly and grinding; high-speed air bearing spindle for grinding graphite optic mounting surfaces; indexing turret assembly; granite surface plate and base frame; CNC lathe controller and electrical control cabinet].

ABTech has a proven process of discovery, collaboration, quotation, execution, implementation and follow-up, unmatched by any other manufacturer.

When a company develops a unique product, it needs equally innovative measurement systems to monitor consistency and verify the quality. Faced with the need to meet tight specifications for its ultra-thin, high-performance thin films, Peak Nano Optics turned to ABTech's expertise in custom-engineered metrology and precision motion systems.

Peak Nano has developed optical lenses composed of film layers 10,000 times thinner than a human hair. These nano-layered, gradient, refractive index (GRIN) lenses are significantly lighter than any other, enable more complex performance parameters and are custom-tailored for military, medical and commercial applications. They needed a system to precisely measure the refractive index of each film, ensure the films met customer specifications and then load them robotically into sorting bins.

ABTech designed, engineered, and built the system shown in this video using proprietary precision motion and measurement systems, off-the-shelf components - such as the robot - that were used in new ways and Peak Nano’s application software. One of the project team’s challenges was to identify and bring together all of the pieces, evaluate and test them for this custom purpose and learn the new technologies involved, at the same time ensuring that the completed system would be accurate and fast enough to meet Peak Nano’s needs.

ABTech's air-bearing technology provides accuracies 0.000,001” 0.025 microns with nearly absolute repeatability, and no contacting parts to wear over time, therefore delivering years of reliable and maintenance-free operation.
