description | Continuous polishing is the first choice for machining optical elements with a large aperture. The lubrication in the continuous polishing is an important factor affecting the surface quality of the optical elements. In this study, the lubrication system between the optic element and polishing lap was analyzed firstly and then was verified by the measurement experiment of the friction coefficient. In addition, the numerical simulation model of the mixture lubrication was established. The polishing pressure distribution and material removal distribution can be obtained by the model. The influences of the rotating speed, optical element load, and surface roughness of the polishing lap on polishing pressure were also analyzed. Finally, the influence rules of the lubrication on the surface shape of optical elements were revealed by the polishing experiments. |
