Satisloh’s VFT digital lens generators, come in various models with different footprints and throughputs for varying production requirements. All VFT lens generators use Satisloh’s proprietary fast tool with patented voice coil technology for the turning process. Our ophthalmic lens generators cover all production processes, including cribbing blanks to the final lens diameter, milling and turning even the most complex designs, and mechanical engraving semi-visible marks. The latest Satisloh generators, feature technology to generate an overlay of two surfaces on the lens. Special geometries can be added to the prescription surface of the lens and machined in one cutting process using this feature.

The ophthalmic cleaning process includes removing contaminations like adhesive residues and fingerprints from the lenses. The cleaning process takes place prior coating. It has become indispensable to best automate the cleaning process. So, most of today’s cleaning machines ensure operator free, full automation processes. This saves time and makes lens production even more cost-effective.

Lens edging, also called lens finishing, is the final step in processing mountable spectacle lenses. The secret to excellent finishing is the perfect match between the edge of the lens and the frame’s rim. Finishing technology needs to precisely center the lens without slippage or deforming the frame while processing. And of course lens aesthetics are always important. Satisloh offers both industrial and tabletop finishing technology for all applications and sizes. From simple edging and mountings to sophisticated finishing processes.
