I am considering purchasing a COBURN HPE-910 along with the tracer-HAB-8000X. Anyone have anything, good or bad to say about it?

What edger do you use? And do you love it, hate it or somewhere in between?
I'm walking into this discussion 5 years late, so I imagine you've got it fixed, but just in case you don't, I had the same problem a couple years ago. Brian at Coburn

The user's guide is 234 pages long; no one would want to do all that scanning. Call Essilor 855-393-4647 option 3 to order one.
It just occurred to me you may mean the shelf that you set the frame into which then clamps down on the frame. There are a few frames that those clamps won't hold and I have hold that "slider" really...
What do you mean by "slider"? is it the tracing pin? If so, I find that if it's a wrap frame I have to push down on the temples during the trace to sort of flatten the front momentarily. Also,...
why would you not be dotting all your lenses? If you're trusting your lab's markings on progressives, you need to stop doing that, they are all sloppy with them. find the etchings and mark them. That...

Hi Sean,
I'm not familiar with Innovations, but I do know that if your stock lens, when cut, won't have a thick enough edge to support a groove, the Kappa will refuse it. I think it's a great...
Clean as a whistle, this patternless edger grooves, polishes, and safety bevels everything but glass. Available with your choice of bucket and pumps or direct water solenoids.
This machine has...
If so, what do you think of it? Does it perform as advertised? Does it produce perfect jobs? Are you having any problems with it? I'd love to hear from you! Thanks!
...and do you love it, hate it, or somewhere in between?
I am an admitted perfectionist; I like the job to end up on axis (not just "close enough"), with the correct PD, height, etc.
Please...
[The old check writer ink which thick and oily applied on the roller will not dry and work nearly forever, and is easily wiped off the lens. [/QUOTE]
Chris,
Please advise about "the old...
Several months later, I have finally checked out this thread, since I am in the market for a new edger. The Kappa and the Briot Access CL have been suggested to me. I am somewhat of a perfectionist;...
Hi everyone,
Thought I should give an update. I've tried a few things since I last posted, and haven't had a recurrence yet, although that doesn't mean much, since it has always been a rather rare...
Thanks, Rich and Harry, for your responses.
The chucks are plastic, and I have inspected them, can't find a problem there. And all but one of the dings are nowhere near the lensometer dots. Go...
Thanks, Augie, but the dings are not at the lens edges. The most recent were at the point where the chuck pad met the lens. Anybody have any other ideas? Thanks!
Hi Jeff, and thanks again for your interest!
Can't tell you base curves, but all affected lenses were either SV or PALs, so we can rule out segs as a cause.
This is especialy frustrating since...
Thanks, Jeff & Augie, for your responses.
I tried Jeff's suggestion about marking the periphery of the chuck pad and didn't see any sign of warpage. However, I did discover that, at least for the...
I have to say I'm confused by Chris's answer. I recently put a food-containing bag which was lined with foil on the INSIDE and totally closed up into the microwave and it flashed. Not enough to kill...
First I want to thank those of you who responded last month when I posted to Aaron's thread in his search for a choice of patternless edger. You were really helpful.
It turned out there WAS an...
I'm in complete agreement with Chip. We don't charge for nosepads, adjustments, or even "spare parts" temples (you know, the ones we stripped off the broken frames when someone bought a new pair).

It's definitely Marcolin. I know because I carry the line, which does very well. Good luck with it!
Hi, everyone!
I'm brand new tonite to this site, just learned about it because I was hoping to ask opinions about anyone's experience with the Santinelli 9000SX (I've been having wierd trouble...
