Over the past two decades, precision glass molding has gradually become a competitive
hot-replicating manufacturing technology for precision glass optical components. But
form errors occur on surface of molded glass optics as a result of a diverse range of effects
including viscoelastic relaxation and thermal shrinkage of optical glass material during the
molding and cooling processes. Conventionally these errors can be compensated solely
via time-consuming and cost-intensive try-out molding experiments.
