Large Frame Lathes

NANOFORM® 700 ULTRA

The Nanoform 700 ultra has a industry leading surface finish spec of 1 nm Ra. Its unique 700 mm swing and optional 170 kg load capacity make it the largest ultra precision machining system able to achieve that level of performance.

The Nanoform 700 ultra is designed for the production of optical lenses, optical mold inserts, mirrors & mechanical components. The machine can be configured from 2 to 4-axes to produce spherical, aspheric and freeform surfaces.

Since 1962, Precitech has delivered complete ultra precision solutions and maintains an installed base of over 1,500 systems worldwide. We continue to define the state-of-the-art, enhancing accuracy, productivity, and ease of use.

  • Industry leading swing and load capacity
  • Flexibility to manufacture parts up to 700 mm 350 mm of X axis travel and ultimate load capacity of 170 kg (375 lbs)
  • 5x improvement in thermal stability HS 150 spindle
  • Reduced sensitivity to vibration integral TMC MaxDamp® isolation system
  • Performance rivaling that of small frame lathes industry leading surface finish of less than 1 nm Ra

NANOFORM® L 1000

Whether you need to manufacture large parts today, have the flexibility to adapt to future market requirements, or simply save valuable tool setting time.

The Nanoform L 1000 is precisely the machine you need.

The Nanoform L 1000 has the largest swing capacity of any standard production ultra precision machining system available on the market.

It is designed for the ultimate productivity and flexibility in diamond turning and deterministic microgrinding of optical lenses, mold inserts, mirrors, and precision mechanical components. The machine can be configured with two, three, or four axes to produce spherical, aspherical, and freeform surfaces.

Since 1962, Precitech has delivered complete ultra precision solutions and maintains an installed base of over 1,500 systems worldwide. We continue to define the state-of-the-art, enhancing accuracy, productivity, and ease of use.
