Weco E5 System

Accurate job preparation and fashionable flexibility

The Weco E5 combines all the necessary functionalities of today’s state of the art edger practice.

Block with Confidence with Gravitech®

The  intuitive parallax-free, camera-assisted blocking system has been simplified to 3 easy steps that helps eliminate human error during the blocking process, decreasing the dreaded “redo” and increasing your patient satisfaction.

Stay Ahead of the Curve

A brand new digital lens clock feature measures the front base-curve of the lens in a matter of seconds to ensure that the Weco E5 achieves a perfect finish.

Damaged Demo Lens? No Problem with Shape Creator 2.0

The Weco E5 can accurately reconstruct broken or defective demo lenses with minimal effort using the new Shape Creator 2.0 technology on the Weco C6 Blocker

Brushless Technology for Faster, Quieter Operation

Edge lenses faster and more efficiently while also reducing noise with new brusheless motor technology featured on the Weco E5. Now, you can plug this edger in anywhere that has a 120V line adding extra placement flexibility in your optical lab.

Provide the Best Finish on High Base-curve Frames with Briot’s Best-Fit Technology

Our advanced drive technology in conjunction with a small 90mm diamond wheel allows flawless finishing on high base-curve lenses and complex frames with sharp corners.

Make the First Fit the Right Fit

No two frames are exactly alike, so it is important to have a drilling system that is flexible enough to tackle any challenge. With the dynamically adjustable drilling / grooving tool on the Weco E5, you can be assured that your lenses will have an exceptional finish.
