lathe marks Explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_lens#Manufacturing_of_c... "Lathe turned - A lathe turned contact lens is cut and polished on a CNC lathe.[31] Lathe Turning is #101 of Mass Reducing Operations.[32] The lens starts out as a cylindrical disk held in the jaws of the lathe. The lathe is equipped with an industrial grade diamond as the cutting tool. The CNC Lathe turns at nearly 6000 RPM (revolutions per minute) as the cutter removes the desired amount of material from the inside of the lens. The concave (inner) surface of the lens is then polished with some fine abrasive paste, oil, and a small polyester cottonball turned at high speeds. In order to hold the delicate lens in reverse manner, wax is used as an adhesive. The convex (outer) surface of the lens is thus cut and polished by the same process." http://www.clsa.info/PDF/1Q_07_CUP120.pdf 7ページ参照 "To inspect the lens, hold the concave side against the scale and look for lathe marks, scratches and edge chips." |
