Next generation manual lens polishing

An evolution in manual lens polishing, the compact dual-spindle Multi-FLEX-M produces up to 50 lenses per hour. It combines the best of its predecessor, the Toro-FLEX, with the same Evolution-U polishing process and dynamic kinematics as known from the automatic Multi-FLEX and proven in over 650 installations worldwide. Coupled with a VFT-macro digital generator it makes a perfect surfacing pair for labs with manual production or Metro-Labs.

  • 1-step Evolution-U polishing process provides faster polishing times and an exceptionally wide working range of up to -18 dpt.
  • Universal Tool Technology reduces the number of polishing tools required to just 1, for reduced tool inventory, simplified operation and fewer tool changes
  • Outstanding tool lifetime of up to 25,000 seconds for extremely low cost/lens
  • Intelligent polishing tools with embedded RFID tag enable tool usage tracking and improved efficiency
  • Easy-to-use integrated industrial PC with touchscreen seamlessly  integrates with lab IT infrastructure, eliminating the need for additional polishing servers
  • Backup, diagnosis & remote support functions
  • MES-360 Lite included for basic data analysis
  • Software-controlled cleaning cycle and additional in-chamber bellow cleaning nozzles ensure machine is always clean and ready for use
  • Compact footprint & accessible machine design for easy maintenance
