I am working through a military base and our equipment is OLD. We have been having issues with the right lens of each frame coming out 5-10 degrees off in the axis every time. I cannot identify what the issue is. I don't think it is the edger as we "upgraded" from the National Optronics 7E to the 7EX. We are using a 4Ti tracer, Nidek LM-1200 lensometer and the ancient AIT Speede blocker. We only cut polycarbonate lenses up to a -6.00 sphere and -3.00 cyl.
We have tried calibrating the edger to see if that was the issue but it is not. Could it be the lensometer? The blocker? The tracer?
We have had multiple people fabricate the same exact way and the results are the same.
Any input or ideas would be helpful! Thank you!
