Topology optimization of a single point diamond turning fixture for a deployable primary mirror telescope

HIGHLIGHTS

  • What: This study explores the potential benefits of leveraging Additive Manufacturing (AM) and Optimization (TO) in the realm of ultra-precision machining specifically single-point diamond machining. Through Finite Element Analysis this research compares conventionally machined fixtures with those produced using AM and TO techniques. The aim of this study was to isolate and compare the effects of cutting and rotation forces on the two types of fixture.
  • Who: Cyril Bourgenot and colleagues from the NETPark Research Institute, Centre for Advanced Instrumentation, Durham University, Joseph Swan Road have published the Article: Topology Optimization of a . . .
