Santinelli International recently unveiled its Xtrimer SE-1 Industrial Edger featuring dry-cut lens edging technology.

Hauppauge, NY-Santinelli International recently unveiled its Xtrimer SE-1 Industrial Edger featuring dry-cut lens edging technology. The Xtrimer SE-1 has a “V” tool design, which introduces a new and efficient method of dry-cutting and milling, addressing the growing complexities of frame shapes and lens materials.

Incorporating 5 individual processing tools, the Xtrimer SE-1 expedites the roughing process on all organic lens materials, including Trivex and polycarbonate. The unit completes the 3-D cutting cycle and is capable of making tiltable bevel profiles (inclined bevels) and drilling a multitude of difficult shapes.

Job data and grinding condition settings are displayed in high-resolution graphics on the large, color LCD touch screen for easy job verification. Processing-command data can be entered using the iRx Editor tablet application. This application allows for real-time, interactive, remote support and combines useful functions such as sending/receiving of log files, software upgrades and more, for uninterrupted operation. Retouching after processing can be done automatically by entering the retouch information via the tablet.

The Xtrimer SE-1 is available as a stand-alone edger and is also engineered to operate in a small, medium or large volume capacity in conjunction with the company’s AES robotic units.
