Cobalt DP Free-Form Lens Polisher
The Cobalt DP, high-speed, soft-tool lens polisher is part of the Cobalt high-volume production system for free-form and traditional RX lenses. The Cobalt surfacing process leaves the final polished lens optically clear (virtually haze–free) without the need to apply hard coating for optical clarity, while producing better surfaced (cut & polished) free-form lens results than any other free-form surfacing system in the industry.
The Cobalt DP utilizes 4-axis motion control compared to other optical polishing machines using only 3-axis. This helps provide the user with the ability to control, move, and manage the lenses with greater speed, accuracy and variation than any other system on the market.
The Cobalt DP can easily be paired with Coburn’s Cobalt NX and NXT/NXT+ lens generators, as well as any other compatible free-form surface generator.
Cobalt DP supports complete automation with the addition of the new Cobalt DP+. Place lenses in the tray at the entrance of the Cobalt DP+ conveyor belt for hands-off polishing, and retrieve the polished lenses from the opposite end of the conveyor belt.
