Dispatch Packaging Unit

The Dispatch Packaging Unit for Prescription Lenses is a large scale production machine which gathers both prescription lens envelopes (right and left), a delivery note, ID card, and cleaning clothe along with other accessories; and places them into a larger dispatch envelope. Optional is the automatic sorting between different destinations to reduce and optimize shipping times and costs, while the completely automatic packaging prevents any mispackaging.
With the capacity of the machine up to 300 jobs per hour (depending on the materials loaded), the machine can be installed behind the Automatic Packaging Unit for Prescription Lenses.

WHAT THEY SAY

For us, the DLM is synonymous with quality and certification. Yes, it contributes to acquire and keep the customer confidence. It also helps to verify the concordance between the manufactured lens and the prescription.

The DLM is essential equipment for any prescription laboratory, Free-form or not. The quality control is very important at each step of the lens manufacturing. 

The partnership with Automation & Robotics is our best asset to remain faithful to our policies.

Subjectivity has been removed from the inspection process and we can rely on providing excellent quality to the eyecare practitioners, consistently.

The A&R machines have proven to be very reliable and deliver great accuracy. We get great support from the A&R service team and enjoy working with them.

We see an essential component for the manufacturing of individually optimised lenses in the technique by Automation & Robotics.

I would say that A&R is open to new developments.  It was worth submitting them our request and we were pleased to come here for testing

We were impressed by A&R policy, its designs, developments and customized and reliable solutions.

Our returns for manufacturing reasons decreased dramatically once the machines were installed.

Thanks to the well-studied conveyors layout, the machines are fed in a simply way, in particular via deviations to regulate the flow at the entrance of the machines. 

We found in A&R equipment the solution to face a difficult challenge : continued growth, expanding shifts (weekend & night), training of good quality control operators, combined with seasonal fluctuations (holidays, promotions…) made our QC operations difficult to manage.

When we first deployed the new dispatch envelope, our marketing department was anxious to hear feedback on customer acceptance.  The reaction of the opticians to our new envelope was very positive.  They particularly appreciated the cleanliness of the packaging and its professional appearance.  In short, the acceptance was excellent.

We are making good use of our new promapper in our production and as a pleasing result we have also improved the quality of our surfacing line output.

I use ProMapper every day to check the quality of my lenses. It's really a fundamental help in maintaining a high level of product quality.
