Electro Optics
All 2 axis lathes require that the radius of the diamond
tool be consistent in terms of its radius throughout its
specified cutting arc, in other words “Controlled
Waviness”.
This requires that the deviation from the ideal radius be
controlled with greater precision.
All our tools are available in both natural and synthetic
single crystal diamond.
We offer a range of geometries including radius size, rake
angle and clearance angles.
All diamonds are oriented to present the hardest part of
the stone to the cutting radius.
Tools are available in both solid shank and inserts.
