Estimating the term…
A method for machining particularly spectacle lenses by means of a machine which comprises at least one cutting unit and at least one turning unit in a common working space, wherein at least two spectacle lenses are machined at the same time in the working space, one of said spectacle lenses being cut while the other is turned. The machine frames of the cutting unit and of the turning unit are essentially decoupled from one another in terms of vibration and/or at least two machining units of the machine comprise workpiece spindle units for generating a transverse movement of the spectacle lens to be machined with respect to the respective tool, the workpiece spindle units being arranged essentially perpendicular to one another. As a result, it is possible for spectacle lenses to be machined in an extremely short time with high machining performance and with high surface precision and quality.
A method for machining spectacle lenses as workpieces by means of a machine which comprises a cutting unit with a first machine frame and a turning unit with a second machine frame, and a common machine pedestal for mounting said machine frames, wherein said machine frames delimit a common working space, wherein at least two spectacle lenses are machined at the same time in the working space, one of said spectacle lenses being cut by the cutting unit while the other is turned by the turning unit, and wherein said machine frames are essentially decoupled from one another in terms of vibration in that at least one of said machine frames is mounted on the common machine pedestal via vibration decoupling elements in the form of spring elements.
A machine for machining spectacle lenses, comprising a cutting unit with a first machine frame, a turning unit with a second machine frame, and a common machine pedestal for mounting said machine frames, wherein said machine frames delimit a common working space in which the spectacle lenses can be machined at the same time by the cutting unit and the turning unit, and wherein said machine frames are essentially decoupled from one another in terms of vibration in that at least one of said machine frames is mounted on the common machine pedestal via vibration decoupling elements in the form of spring elements.
