Abstract

This paper outlines the underlying philosophy of, and reports preliminary results from, experiments with three nominally identical diamond turning machines. Identical tools,specially fabricated from the same diamond, were used to machine mirrors from blanspks cut from the same base material using previously specified process parameters; parts produced are compared.
