OPTICUS Inline Coating System For Eyeglass Lenses
Proven coating technology and a revolutionary concept
The OPTICUS coating system for eyeglass lenses is based on an innovative inline concept for industrial refinement of prescription lenses. By high-quality coatings the optical and mechanical properties of lenses are crucially improved.
The main function of OPTICUS is the inline coating of eyeglass lenses with a hard coat, an anti-reflection layer stack and a clean coat on both sides of the lens simultaneously.
OPTICUS with its patented coating technology distinguishes itself from the traditional batch processes and satisfies all the prerequisites to revolutionize the existing production of optical lenses. OPTICUS automates the production process and considerably reduces costs, logistical efforts as well as the personnel intensity. An OPTICUS machine amortizes itself in a very short period of time.
An essential factor of the inline technology is the transport and processing of single substrates. All process steps for the coating of the substrate including an inline quality control are interlinked in one system.
SINGULUS is clearly acknowledged as the global market leader in the field of CD- and DVD-production machines and provides machinery and application solutions for the entire manufacturing process. OPTICUS is the result of the combination of proven coating technologies, high-performance expertise and unique experience bundled with a revolutionary concept for the application of optical lens coating.
With its worldwide sales and service network SINGULUS provides exceptional support combined with technological synergies to benefit our customers.
