Here are a few:

- Use low pressure
- Double check the lens (put a pad on each side)
- Make sure that the chuck diameter matches the clamp diameter

I think you will find that helps.

how do i adjust the pressure? the only thing that was taught to me is the d1,d2,d3, d3 being the lowest setting. pads i use all the time. the other day i was getting ****** off i started slapping 5 pads on each side all spread-out. and chuck pad, using the same ive been using for years. originally i worked with santinelli and got moved to another lab so most of gerber equipment is new to me.

I cannot comment on the pressure setting since I am not familiar with the edger. Watch about putting more than one pad on each side, because that will cause the lens to twist, thus can cause crazing.

What lens material and AR brand are you experiencing this with?

ill try using less pads on the lenses. the brand is vision ease essilor poly.

On the Gerber Professional edger, the chucking pressure is regulated by a series of springy disks inside the chuck. When those disks crack (and they do), you end up with high chucking pressure, no matter what the setting. Best bet is to call Gerber Coburn about repairing the chuck.

i dont think it's going to happen since i work for a retailer. apparently associates are deblocking incorrectly causing crazing. i dont get it since everything has been fine up until last week. still getting the same problem.

If its not going to happen, your problem will continue and even a full fledged prayer session by all OptiBoard memebers will not help.

i discovered the issue or a solution to it. the adhesive chuck pads were too sticky so i added a dab of water. so far no issues.
