The MirrorScale research project is developing a new process chain for the thermal forming of optical mirror substrates. The goal is a robust, scalable forming technique for mirrors with diameters exceeding one meter. The approach eliminates the need for grinding and polishing—paving the way for a more energy-efficient, digitally integrated manufacturing process in North Rhine-Westphalia.
