In 2024, the global production of aspheric precision molding machines reached 906 units, with an average sales price of US$78,300 per unit. An aspheric precision molding machine is an ultra-precision optical lens processing machine specifically designed for manufacturing aspheric optical lenses and high-precision optical components. It can mold optical glass into the desired aspheric shape in a single operation, achieving high dimensional and surface accuracy, as well as excellent surface quality. Typically equipped with high-precision molds, a temperature control system, a displacement monitoring device, and a pneumatic or electric drive mechanism, this machine enables stable production under strictly controlled temperature, pressure, and protective atmosphere, making it suitable for mass production of high-end optical components. The principle of an aspheric precision molding machine is based on optical glass precision compression molding technology, a highly efficient and environmentally friendly method for manufacturing high-precision optical components. Softened glass is placed into a high-precision mold and, under heat, pressure, and an oxygen-free environment, directly molded in a single operation to produce optical components that meet application requirements. Low-melting-point, high-quality optical glass is first heated to a softened state. Then, it is compression-molded in a high-precision aspheric mold under strictly controlled temperature, pressure, and an oxygen-free environment. Subsequently, it undergoes a precise cooling and annealing process to eliminate internal stresses and ensure the lens's geometric accuracy and optical performance. The entire process is controlled with high precision through the electronic control system, temperature control system and displacement monitoring device, so that the aspheric optical elements can stably replicate the mold shape and achieve high repeatability and consistency in production.
The aspheric precision molding machine industry chain can be divided into three major segments: upstream raw materials and components, midstream equipment manufacturing, and downstream application markets. The upstream segment primarily includes high-performance mold steel, optical glass materials, and key components such as CNC systems, sensors, displacement monitoring devices, and temperature control systems. The midstream segment is dominated by molding machine manufacturers, who manufacture equipment through mold design and processing, precision temperature and displacement control, and automated system integration. Some companies are also expanding into molds and optical components, creating an integrated advantage. The downstream segment focuses on optical component production, with products widely used in automotive cameras, LiDAR, AR/VR, drone optical systems, optical communications and 5G optical modules, and security.
Aspheric glass lenses, with their advantages of high transmittance, low distortion, wear resistance, and high temperature resistance, excel in image quality and stability. They are widely used in automotive cameras, lidar, optical communications, fiber lasers, and security applications. Their application scenarios are expanding with the expansion of emerging markets such as biomedicine. The rapid development of the global automotive industry and the trend towards intelligent driving have driven the expansion of the aspheric glass lens market, thereby driving broad development opportunities for aspheric molding machines, a core production equipment. Furthermore, national policies support the upgrading of the optical component manufacturing industry, accelerate domestic substitution, and encourage companies to achieve breakthroughs in aspheric precision molding technology, enhancing their independent R&D capabilities and control over the industrial chain. Despite this, the downstream market for aspheric molding machines is subject to fluctuations in demand, influenced by macroeconomic factors, policies, and end-product cycles. Their rapid technological evolution, encompassing control systems, temperature control, displacement monitoring, and mold processing, makes it difficult to meet high-precision requirements, placing them at risk of obsolescence, particularly in automotive and emerging applications. Furthermore, the high costs of equipment development, production, and maintenance could squeeze companies' profit margins if competition intensifies or prices fall. The company's reliance on imported key components also makes it vulnerable to supply chain fluctuations and trade restrictions. Furthermore, the development and operation of aspheric molding machines relies heavily on specialized talent. A lack of such talent will hinder new product development and capacity expansion, impacting the industry's long-term competitiveness.
