In response to the increasing use of advanced two axis machining systems, for the direct lathing of intra ocular lenses, Contour Fine Tooling has developed a range of tools with conical or cylindrical clearance. These tools are available with natural or synthetic single crystal diamond and with the traditional solid shank or the Insert system In most laboratories, 2 axis lathes
are utilised in the production of IOLs. This would dictate that the
diamond tool must have a radius with controlled waviness. The control
software of the machine in conjunction with the tool radius form
combine to generate the lens geometry. Any errors in the tool form
will translate directly into the machined work piece. Evolved from
the demanding requirements of the electro-optics manufacturing industries,
controlled waviness IOL tools offer an extremely high level of performance
at an affordable price. |
