3.3 SPECIAL CASE
3.3.1 APPLYING AN OVERSIZE
3.3.1.1 WHY?
If you find that the overthickness applied to the job by default is not suitable, you can decide to apply an oversize
which will be applied to the lens to be edged.
3.3.1.2 HOW?
3.3.1.2.1 PRELIMINARY CONDITION
You must enter the oversize value BEFORE edging the lens.
3.3.1.2.2 PROCEDURE
From the main application screen (Edging tab), after selecting all the job characteristics, proceed as follows.
Enter the correction value.
Check the entered value.
Start the lens blocking operation.
3.3.1.2.3 RESULT
The lens is edged and the initial dimension has been increased or decreased by the entered value.
You may check the lens diameter with a digital caliper and retouch it if necessary.
3.3.1.3 HINTS
Always check that the type of oversize displayed is indeed that which you wish to apply.
3.3.1.4 IMPORTANT NOTES
The retouch is applied to the width of the lens.The height of the lens is recalculated to retain the proportions
of the initial shape.
For the same job, the oversizing applied to the right lens is automatically applied to the left lens.
3.3.1.5 LIMITS
+/- 0,5 mm to boxing width.
