The Winter 2004-2005 edition of our newsletter, 5th Floor News, has just been published. In it you will find information on the largest electroformed bellows, nano- and microfluidic molds, optical electroforming and more. To download a copy of the publication, visit our newsletter page.
August 2004
A joint R&D effort of NiCoForm, Inc. and Advanced Optical Systems (Huntsville, AL), aimed at producing precision electroformed mirrors and named FAAME, is drawing to a successful completion in December 2004. In this project, diamond machined mandrels were used to electroform three generations of replicas with optical precision of less than 3 wavelengths in the visible light. From a single master we produced five first generation, ten second and twelve third generation 2" OD mirror replicas. In another series of tests we determined that a master diamond machined in electroless nickel can withstand over 25 replication cycles without noticeable deterioration of its surface finish and geometry. These results were presented in August 2004 at the Space Optics Manufacturing Technology Center's Tech Days 2004 in Huntsville, AL. Click to view the talk brief. They were also described in the Missile Defense Agency's Spring 2005 newsletter (click here to view article).
