SIG Meeting Structured & Freeform Surfaces 2024 📍 Nottingham, UK State-of-the-Art Dr Raoul Roth from RhySearch will be giving his talk on Free-form metal optics – manufacturing techniques and coating processes. This presentation provides an overview of the state of the art in diamond turning of freeform surfaces and the corresponding coating technologies for optical coatings. In diamond turning, it explores slow-tool and fast-tool servo techniques, illustrated by a specific example of applications. Special attention is also paid to coating technologies, with a focus on dual ion beam sputtering and atomic layer deposition. These technologies can be used to produce uniform and high-precision coatings on both flat and curved surfaces. In addition, an overview of the characterisation of optical coatings is given and, for example, the influence of different workpiece materials on the reflectivity is shown. Biography Raoul Roth completed his degree in mechanical engineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETHZ) in 2006. After working as a research assistant in the field of manufacturing technologies at inspire AG (technology transfer organization of ETHZ), he completed his PhD in 2014 at the Institute for Machine Tools and Manufacturing (IWF) at ETHZ under the supervision of Prof. Konrad Wegener in the field of spark erosion. After a short time at the Institute for Sustainable Development at Zurich University of Applied Science (ZHAW) he returns to the IWF as a postdoc. In his postdoctoral work, he focused on surface functionalization using spark erosion and laser technologies. Raoul Roth is now working as project leader in applied research at RhySearch since 2017. His area of responsibility includes the further development of cutting technologies, ranging from single point diamond turning to 5-axis milling in a wide variety of projects. We are still accepting abstracts for this event so if you are interesting in participating, please contact us at info@euspen.eu
About us
The European Society for Precision Engineering and Nanotechnology (euspen) has a prestigious heritage. It was formed in 1998 when a group of leading indusrialist and academics came together with a wish to provide a networking forum for this key community, complementary to that which existed in both Japan and the US. With representation across 32 countries worldwide, euspen provides a technical focus on: - ultra/nano-precision manufacturing - design and build of ultra-precision machine systems -characterisation; metrology systems, instruments and techniques euspen today is a highly respected body of outstanding industrialists and researchers. Together we set the standards for innovation in the field precision, micro and nano engineering. Join our membership society - www.euspen.eu

Congratulations to the Winners of the euspen Talent Programme 2024 We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Wayne Edgar from DTU - Technical University of Denmark, Danish Ashraf from The University of Huddersfield, UK, and Koichi Hayashi from Nagoya University, JP, for their remarkable achievement in winning the euspen Talent Programme 2024. This year's challenge, held in collaboration with Stryker, centered around the development of an MPO (Multi-fiber Push On) connector plate design. The focus was not only on the design but also on creating an efficient manufacturing process for the automated assembly and testing of the fiber optic connector performance. As part of their victory, the winners had the opportunity to visit the Stryker Technology Centre in Cork, Ireland, accompanied by our Talent committee member and 2022 winner, Adriano Nicola Pilagatti. This visit was an immersive experience into some of the world-leading medical technologies and methodologies employed by Stryker. We also extend our thanks to all those who participated in the finals: Sahar Karimian, Liam Bortolin, Christopher O'Hara, Tilmann Riemer, Manning Sun, and Mohammadreza Kadivar. We look forward to seeing your future contributions to the engineering field and the impact of your projects on the industry. Have a read here to learn about the winners' experiences!

The world of metrology meets in Dublin The euspen conference in Dublin is in full swing and SIOS Meßtechnik GmbH is represented with an information booth. This prestigious event brings together metrology experts and enthusiasts from all over the world. At our booth, Rudyard Urtecho and Peter Grundschok will be presenting our SP 5000 TR triple beam interferometer for simultaneous and accurate length, pitch, and yaw angle measurements. Visitors will be able to see first hand how this flexible interferometric system performs measurements with the highest accuracy. The euspen conference provides a unique platform to network with industry leaders, learn about new technologies and gain valuable insights. Our team will be on hand to demonstrate the capabilities and applications of the SP 5000 TR. 👉 If you are also interested in a personal consultation, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our team of experts is ready to help you find the best solution for your measurement needs. Official euspen
