Ultra-Precision Polishing
Zeeko polishers have been developed over a period of more than 10 years and follow a philosophhy of continous improvement. All machines are built on a universal platform that enables convex, concave, freeform and other complex geometries to be polished.
All machines can (subject to the correct selection of Software) polish any of these geometries and use raster, spiral or more complex tool-paths to achieve finishes that can be as good as 2-3 Angstrom, and form accuracies that can be as good as lambda/20 P-V dependent on the material, metrology and prior condition.
All machines can perform:
- Grolishing
- Pre-polishing
- Corrective polishing and finish polishing
- Jet polishing
- Pitch laced polishing (for finishing)
- Smoothing
- Spiral Tool Path
- Raster Tool Path
- Random Tool Path
- Adaptive Spiral Tool Path

SOFTWARE
Zeeko Tool Path Generator(TPG) is capable of generating simple and complex tool paths for the Zeeko IRP Series of polishing machines. It can be used stand alone or in connection with Precessions.
There are 3 software editions to choose from: 2D, 2.5D, 3D.
Product Features:
- Intergrated Surface Designer
- Tool Path Modules

The Metrology Toolkit software is capable of reading data from a wide variety of Metrology Instruments, to process and analyse it.
The software can also export surface deviation maps:
- To the native file format of the measuring instrument
- As corrected tool paths for precision machine tools (Grinders, SPDT...)
- To other software packages such as : Zeeko TPG, Precessions, Mountains, Talymap, Surfstand, MetroPro...
There are 3 software editions to choose from: 2D, 2.5D, 3D.

- Intergrated Custom Script Editor/li>
- Machining Compensation
- Data Visualisation Modes
Precessions is capable of optimising simple and complex tool paths in order to effeciently reduce surface form deviation with little iteration. It is used in connection with Zeeko TPG, which outputs CNC code to the Zeeko IRP Series of polishing machines. There are 3 software editions to choose from: 2D, 2.5D, 3D.
Product Features:
- Intergrated Surface Designer
- Tool Path Modules (In conjunction with Zeeko TPG)
- Metrology Interface
- Influence Function Database
- Advanced Optimisation Module
- 64 Bit Version and Paralle Processing Module
The Zeeko Stitching Toolkit is an extensible software application designed for sub-aperture interferometry data stiching. The number of sub-apertures that can esily be stitched is limited soley by computer memory.
This stitching software can easily be configured to optimise standard fitting terms depending on the particular part in question. With correct auxiliary equipment(hardware) and data processing, the stitching software can stitch plane, spherical and aspherical parts.
The software also performs stitching terms analysis and contains a very powerful Zernike fitting tool that can be used to construct arbitary wavefront.
