The Machine is an ultra-precision two axis continuous path CNC contouring and
edging lathe for the direct machining of:
(a) All non-ferrous metal molds (inserts);
(b) Contact Lenses (spherical aspheric and toric);
(c) Intra-Ocular Lenses (spherical aspheric and toric)
When equipped with the optional Fast Tool Servo attachments (such as the FTS-1000
VARIMAX or VARIFORM?? ) it produces a wide range of complex non-rotationally
symmetrical parts in both polymers and non-ferrous metals.
In addition user-defined edge configurations can be specified and incorporated into the
lens / mold design and directly machined.
Continuous path CNC machining can generate axisymmetrical shapes which can be
mathematically defined as a surface of revolution. Machined surfaces can range from
flats to spheres and aspherics with up to 14th order polynomial departures or any
combination of these.
