Precision Forming
Precision forming applies Corning's expert knowledge of glass, plastic, and ceramics to form, shape, and mold materials to incredibly tight tolerances. We use our precision forming assets to make Life Sciences vessels that require an extremely high degree of accuracy, such as liquid-handling tools and cell growth surfaces. We apply this same expertise to make optical connectors that align hair-thin fibers perfectly and eliminate the need for splices. Precision forming is also enhancing the value proposition of Corning® Gorilla® Glass.
