We use the conventional production line from SATISLOH (generator + smoothing and polishing machine).
Our daily production is about 250 lenses per day.
We have power off errors at high index material about 20%. We do the high index material on 0.12 dpt step flat back tools.
I know that to achieve more efficient production in power off errors is to produce it on more exact flat back tools steps (0.06 or 0.03).
Due to low volume of production it has no sense (because of price and place for storage) to create the additional flat back tools (like 0.06 or 0.03) so i would like to know the following:
Does anybody have any ideas how to figure out this situation ?
I found out one company that procudes exact flat back tool from teflon and by the all high index materials they will cut the exact tool. In middle europe i was not able to find the cheap teflon material.
My imagination about price for 1 piece of any material that we will produce from it the exact curve is maximum 2 Eur per piece.
I checked the flat back tools at few comapnies and the lowest price for tools is 5 Euros.
Thank you in advance!
