Progressive lenses - Import export

The AutoInker is the ideal inking solution for the prescription labs producing at least 500 jobs/day. The PPOS integrated in the machine detects the µ-engravings of the progressive lenses (any shape, even cut lenses). The position of the lens is taken into account for the digital inking operation. Because the A&R AutoInker is task specific, and the system has a small footprint, you can easily integrate it into the lab, either directly in the final control or after edging (inking of cut lenses). The AutoInker is an excellent investment for a modern lab with a rapid payback!

The Dual LensMapper, integrated in this unit, gives a mapping of the prescription lens (freeform or conventional) and calculates FOA optical power at the reference points (FV, NV). For the freeforms, it compares the expected design to the real lens and displays an error map. A Go/NoGo decision is made, based on the error map and the list of criteria defined by the lab. Because the A&R AutoMapper is task specific, and the system has a small footprint, you can easily integrate it into the lab, either directly after the surfacing or in the final control (also suitable for checking the cut lenses). The AutoMapper is an excellent investment for a modern lab with a rapid payback! 100 % production control just after surfacing --> direct feedback on production* control of the cut lens - in case of remote edging Non contact measurement Correction of eventual R/L inversion Integrated Dual LensMapper : measurement of free form and conventional progressive lenses Control of power, cyl.

The Automatic Packaging Unit for Semi-Finished Lenses is dedicated to large scale packaging requirements of progressive semi-finished lenses. It packages 720 lenses per hour by choosing the correct plastic cup and box type out of ten cup choices and five box types. After being correctly matched to cup and box, the lens is packaged and sorted into 24 double magazines of 15 packaged lenses each, according to several different criteria that is operator set. Through the use of this machine with the Fully Automatic Pad Printing Unit for Semi – Finished Lenses, complete control and packaging is obtained with almost no operator intervention. By adding several options of diameter, center thickness, and curvature measurements, the machine can be used for packaging single vision and multifocal semi-finished lenses.

Identification & Inking Unit for semi-finished lenses (type MITSF) The new concept of MITSF machine is designed to identify and print progressive and multifocalsemi-finished lenses. The PPOS system, integrated in the unit, detects the μ-engravings or the upper segment line and identifies the semi-finished by reading the identification code (check of product code, Addition, base, eye, logo at the edge or under the μ-engravings) by Optical Character Recognition. The inspected lenses are then inked by a robot, permitting a large flexibility in image choice (10 plates – 20 images). The data of this machine can be transmitted to the automatic packaging unit, eliminating any product mispack.
