The original CoreTBA streamlined the entire process by integrating all seven stages of lens production into a single, ultra-compact unit. Building on this success, the new Alpha CoreTBA and Omega CoreTBA separate functionalities across two dedicated machines. This dual approach doubles throughput, allows uninterrupted operation, and brings unmatched modularity – enabling labs to scale and configure systems according to their specific workflow needs.
Driving the Block-Free revolution forward
MEI pioneered the block-free lens production process, eliminating consumables like tape, alloy, and resin while removing the blocking and deblocking stages entirely. The result? Reduced floor space, lower energy consumption, faster turnaround times, and minimised maintenance. Lenses advance to coating far quickly, improving global delivery schedules.
Beyond efficiency, the technology delivers precision: real-time data tracking, continuous map quality control, power matching by transmission, and automated self-calibration ensure every lens meets MEI’s exacting standards.
Innovation, productivity, sustainability
With Alpha CoreTBA and Omega CoreTBA, MEI strengthens its leadership role in shaping the future of optical manufacturing. These advanced systems embody the company’s commitment to innovation, efficiency, and sustainability – empowering labs worldwide to stay ahead in an ever-evolving market.
