At the place where I work, we use a Santinelli LE-7070 edger. Normally this edger does quite good work. But in the short time I have worked there (since June 2), the edger has on two occasions malfunctioned.
The result was that two lenses were edged in such as way that, though apparently correctly sized, the bevels were not formed, and hence the lenses were unusable.
The machine was apparently setup correctly both times. In both cases, the prior and subsequent lenses were correctly edged.
This capricious behavior is a real mystery to me. Has anyone else had this type of experience with the Santinelli (or other) edger? Can you shed any light on the behavior?
Thanks,
Kurt
