POINT

Molds for optical components are so vulnerable that the cleaning of them by hand is extremely difficult and also involves differences in performance between individuals.

As with the CLIPIKA ACE, the CLIPIKA ACE OPT can be operated by anyone easily and can clean even delicate nickel-plated molds without causing any damage.

Of course, it uses no organic solvents and is therefore safe for human health.

Introduction of CLIPIKA ACE OPT

Comparison of damage to molds by cleaning nickel electroformed stampers

advantages
advantages

When cleaning precision molds for lenses or lightguide plates, it is important not only to remove stains but also not to damage the molds.
When a mold with precision patterns or a super mirror finish mold is cleaned with ultrasonic waves only, the ultrasonic shock may cause damage to the mold surface.
The CLIPIKA ACE OPT completely removes stains without causing damage to molds.
