Hi
…. ummm …. errr … Add to that:
X-ray gear to work out the orientation of the (possibly natural) bar you are
sawing
Lapping gear to get the blanks flat (as optically flat)
Automated / sorting X-ray gear to figure out what’s what after they are lapped
Rounding equipment to turn the square ones into round ones without damaging them
Contouring gear to put the proper shape on one or both sides (or pipes)
Polishing gear to finish the shaping process
Etching baths to get the surface to it’s final condition
High vacuum cleaning to get all the crud off of all the parts before you do
much of anything with themA base plater to put on the initial electrodes
Mounting fixtures to get the crystal into the holder
Cement curing (generally vacuum based) gear
Plate to frequency gear
That’s a short list, there actually is a bit more on a full list. The cleaning
gear can get pretty extensive depending on the end application.
Just get the Kurt J. Lesker catalog out and start ordering<grin>
