What each of these optics have in common, regardless of being convex or concave, is that no single radius of curvature can be used to define their overall shape. So how exactly do optical designers characterize the surface shape of an aspheric lens? Well, we promised at the very beginning of these articles we’d avoid mathematics wherever possible and concentrate on the governing concepts – however, in this case, we will need to present the Sag Equation, commonly written as follows:

While aspheres offer a number of advantages over standard lenses, their unique configuration makes them more difficult to manufacture and optical designers must therefore weigh the performance benefits against their higher cost.

The final important concept in the Sag equation is the conic constant. This variable, “k” defines the overall shape of the aspheric surface in terms of it being parabolic, hyperbolic, ellipsoid or spherical.

If you’re researching bartending schools, you’ll likely find that there are a lot of opinions out there about whether or not they are worthwhile.

While we will focus primarily on the manufacturing techniques employed by Esco to fabricate aspheres, there are several other processes worth mentioning.

Optical SpecificationsOnce the Sag equation is used to define the aspheric shape of the lens surface and the physical parameters such as diameter and center and/or edge thickness are chosen, designers then rely on the same optical concepts used for standard lenses to define their level of precision, i.e. power, irregularity, surface roughness, aperture, etc. For a refresher in these characteristics, here’s a link to our last article – Concepts in Light and Optics - Lenses Part 3.

Bartending school is for people who want to raise the bar (see what I did there?) in their profession. People who want to achieve a level of greatness that elevates them above the average.

Lenticularlens

Esco uses both Optotech and OptiPro aspheric generators and polishers to fabricate very complex and high performing aspheric lenses.

The only reason why bartending school – and bartending in general – wouldn’t be a great fit for you, is if you already feel like it’s just ‘a means to an end.’ If you consider your role as a bartender ‘just a job’ you’ll get by cashing a paycheck and going through the motions, but if you want to really excel, you’ll need to be driven by more than just covering your bills.

We welcome you back to our technical series on the Concepts in Light and Optics. In our previous 3 articles we discussed different types of lens configurations, the manner in which they manipulate light, as well as, the terminology and specifications used by optical fabricators to define the quality and precision of their lenses. Building on this knowledge, we’ll now explore one specific lens design that provides significant benefits over those with standard spherical radii. These unique optics are called aspheres. As you will see throughout this article, while complicated in design and often difficult to manufacture, aspheric lenses solve many of the inherent issues found in standard spherical optics that are polished to the very limit of their theoretical performance.

Even the best of the best know, if you want to get ahead in the bartending world, you’ll need to check your ego. Not forget who you are, or hide your true personality – but the idea that you deserve something just for putting in a few hours and handing over a few bucks – that’s a bit of a stretch.

It’s a great way to up your game with some healthy competition, and there’s a high chance you’ll find people – ie, ‘future friends’ – who share your interests and enthusiasm.

The first advantage is the reduction in spherical aberration. Spherical aberration occurs when a lens is not capable of focusing all the incident light on the exact same point. Even when fabricated to its theoretical limit, a standard spherical lens can never achieve the level of precision-focus that an asphere offers. It is the very nature of an asphere’s irregular surface shape that allows it to simultaneously manipulate the many wavelengths of light more precisely, resulting in sharper images.

Null interferometry uses a null lens as a reference surface to compare against the aspheric surface being tested. This reference induces a known amount of spherical aberration that is equal to the difference between the aspheric surface and a standard lens. Comparing the null lens to the interferometric pattern produced by the aspheric lens quantifies how precise the aspheric contour has been generated and polished. Another method of null interferometry uses a computer generated hologram (CGH) as the reference to produce a known wavefront pattern. Again, the interferometric comparison between the CGM and aspheric pattern determines the level of surface accuracy. While null interferometry is highly precise, its complicated set-up, and in the case of CGM’s, expense, both add to the complexity and cost of aspheric lens production.

Aspheres Defined So what exactly is an asphere? The simplest definition is to compare the difference between a surface contour that is “typical” verses one that is “atypical”. Consider the two following examples:

On the flipside, if you do have the desire to be a great bartender, you’re already part of the way to becoming one. A professional instructor will be able to answer that burning question for you: Do I have what it takes to be one of the greats? You might end up surprising yourself with what you can accomplish in a short time.

Having an instructor offer personal and immediate feedback is a rapid-fire way to test yourself, and your skills, in a safer environment than the heat of the battle (like 7pm on a Friday with the lineup out the door.) You’ll get honest feedback without pissing off your employer, co-workers or guests.

If you just want a place to show up to that pays you enough to get by then ‘no’ – bartending school won’t get you any closer to your goals.

(Spoiler alert: not all bartending schools are created equal. In fact, we only recommend two in the world: Nimble Bar School and European Bartender School)

Diamond Turning is a third method that does offer a high level of precision in the quality of the optical surfaces but is somewhat limited in choice of materials. Standard optical glasses cannot be diamond turned while crystals and polymers can. This method employs a diamond-tipped tool that moves across the lens surface generating its shape and surface form. Only one lens can be generated at a time.

You’ll learn a lot, and up your bartending game – and yes, there’s a chance you’ll develop the skills to become a great barkeep. But remember: a chance isn’t a guarantee. Even the best bartenders have honed their craft over time. And there’s nothing automatic about that.

Finally, one of the greatest benefits of using aspheric designs is the reduction in the number of overall lenses needed to achieve a given result. Since an asphere allows for greater control of light through the system, in many cases, a single asphere may provide the same level of precision that previously required several standard lenses used in series. This reduces the overall weight, size and possibly even the cost of the final design.

When it comes down to it, bartending school isn’t for everyone. But, depending on your personal situation, it might be a perfect fit for you.

A second method, while not as precise as interferometry, is to use a surface profilometer. This involves applying a probe which through actual contact with the aspheric contour, offers a physical measurement of its shape.

The second Sub-Aperture method uses an inflatable bladder attached to a generating or polishing pad. Unlike the durometer balls which have a predetermined, fixed value of hardness, the inflatable bladder can adjust its hardness, in effect replacing the need for different durometer balls. Again, using CNC controls to apply pressure to a small point along the lens as it rotates around a fixed axis, this produces an aspheric contour generated and polished to the required surface precision.

An aspheric lens can be convex, concave and even free-form depending on the desired optical performance. Consider the following 3 examples.

The final method, and the one employed by Esco Optics, is a process called Sub-Aperture Generating and Polishing. During this process, a lens is set in place on a rotating fixture. One of two options are then employed to apply pressure to a small point on the lens while it rotates around the fixed axis. The first uses a durometer ball in contact with a rotating belt. Each durometer ball has a defined hardness that helps control the amount of pressure applied to the optical surface as a generating or polishing belt moves between it and the optic. A good analogy of this concept is to consider the different amount of “give” you can feel with your fingers if you squeezed a racquet ball, tennis ball and baseball. It's the choice of hardness in the durometer ball and type of generating/polishing belt that the CNC operated machine uses to apply the appropriate amount of pressure needed to achieve the specific aspheric contour and surface figure. The below graphic demonstrates this process:

A professionally-run bartending school will have instructors who have made it to the ‘next level’ of their craft. While they can definitely get a new bartender off to the races, the nuanced skills they can pass along will help elevate even very experienced bartenders to a high-performance level.

Fast-track your learning by getting one-on-one professional coaching. You could save a little money by starting at the bottom, and working your way up. But if you want to achieve your goals fast, a good bartending school is the way to go.

Focus goes a long way. If you have set financial goals in mind, bartending can be a great way to help you realize them – and if you learn the craft well, it can get you there quickly.

If you’re willing to use the tools given to you during your bartending course, to further your skills and improve your technique, then over time you’re far more likely to get your dream bartending gig – because you will have earned it. A great bartending school will put you on the right path, right out of the gate.

The second concept to understand is that the equation governs a rotationally symmetric aspheric lens. This means that, once again using the vertex of the lens as the starting point, the Sag values generated by the equation are exactly the same at a specific distance from the center regardless of what direction along the X or Y axis is followed (or combination thereof). For example, if you drew a circle around the vertex of the lens that was 0.5” from the central point, the Sag value will always be the same at any point along that circle. Now because we are describing an aspheric surface, the Sag Equation will generate a value that is different at another fixed distance from the center, perhaps at 1.0” or 2.0”. What is important to remember is that at any given distance, although the values may be different from one another, following a circle at the same distance from the center, those values are the same – and that is why it’s called rotationally symmetric.

We get a ton of different inquiries from a wide range of people all looking at the same situation, but in a different context. The following questions are the ones that come up most frequently, and how we recommend moving forward.

The ability to design, fabricate and precisely quantify the complex surface shape of aspheric lenses has transformed the field of optics. Modern optical systems can now incorporate a single lens in place of multiple lens designs while still maintaining, and often times exceeding, the performance of earlier models. While more expensive than traditional lenses, the reduction in overall weight, need for fewer elements, and ability to produce more compact systems, makes aspheres an attractive choice and powerful option in the optical toolkit.

At the Nimble Bar School, we ask our candidates if they seek to be excellent bartenders. We do this because of two universal truths:

Asphericallens

While the above articles persuasively make their cases, they’re still ‘opinion pieces’ that look at the argument through a single lens — the lens of the writer.

Another mass-production method is glass molding. This process differs from injection molding in that the optical material is glass instead of a polymer and each lens is individually pressed with a fixed mold once the material is heated and softened. At higher temperatures, the glass material readily takes the shape of the mold but then requires an annealing step to alleviate any residual stress once the material has set in place. This process also does not produce aspheric surfaces with the level of precision offered by polishing but does offer cost benefits for volume production.

Another optical benefit is the ability to correct for off-axis aberration such as field curvature. Often times, optical designers must “stop-down” their optical systems to physically exclude the outermost region of a lens that produces warping of an image near its edge. As an aspheric design allows for better correction of the incident light onto the focal point, this increases the usable aperture of the lens, which in turn allows for greater light throughput.

The first is injection molding which, as the name implies, uses a fixed mold with a predetermined shape that dictates the final configuration of the lens. Most often a polymer-based optical material then fills the mold and sets in place as it cools. While this method does not achieve the level of precision offered by individually polished lenses, it does allow for mass production at extremely low cost following relatively high up-front tooling charges.  Polymer-based optics also have a limited range of refractive index values when compared to optical glasses.  A perfect example of an asphere made using this technique most likely sits in front of your smart phone’s camera right now.

Corrective lenses

If you’re a student, you already understand that sometimes you need to invest in yourself to make long-term gains. That same mentality makes you a perfect fit for a bartending school.

Remember: if you add just one bartending shift a week to your work-life, that’s an average of an extra $220.00 per week (or $11,440 per year). If you save and invested that for 4 years, you’d have approximately $50,000.00 saved — more than enough for a down payment on a house, startup capital, debt repayment, etc.

The good news is that you only need to understand a few simple concepts included in the Sag Equation in order to know how the aspheric contour is generated. The first concept deals with what information the Sag Equation provides. Basically, using the vertex (center) of the lens as a starting point, the equation tells us how much the lens surface deviates or "sags" along the Z axis (up or down) at any given distance “r” from the center when plotted perpendicularly to the optical axis (or horizontally along the X or Y axis from the center if conceptually easier to picture). Consider the following example of the X, Y, Z coordinates for a visual reference.

This is ‘probably’ a yes – unless you just want to cash a paycheck and not think too much about what you have to do to get it.

Aspheric surface form can be tested and verified in several ways. The most precise relies on the tried and true method of interferometry. For a refresher on the concept of interferometric measurements and instrumentation, please see our previous article Concepts in Light and Optics – Interferometry.

(It’s important that you let the bartending school know about your goals and experience before you sign up. Not all schools have the same programs – some focus on fundamentals, which may leave you retreading steps you’ve already learned. That’s not good for you or for your instructors.)

After you’ve decided which lens best describes your expectations of a bartending school, you can safely make up your mind about whether or not it’s going to be your best course of action.

If bartending is strictly a hobby for you, why not go somewhere that you can rub shoulders with other enthusiastic home bartenders? You know how fun it is to get a group of friends together and wow them with pro techniques and tips – imagine being in a room full of people who love doing the same thing.

Like anything in life, it all comes down to the lens through which you see bartending – how will it fit into your life? In other words: we need to consider its context.

In figure 1, we see a standard “typical” lens with a predefined radius of curvature. As discussed in our previous article, the radius of curvature is the distance between a central, fixed point and the surface of the lens.   Since the radius of curvature remains constant, the surface contour of the lens follows a regular arc where the lens surface is always the same distance from the central point. Now consider the surface shape of the aspheric surface in figure 2. You will notice it has a very distinct shape that deviates from the regular spherical curve of a standard lens. It is this “atypical” surface contour that characterizes both the shape and performance of an aspheric lens.
