Weco E6 S line

Highest possible productivity

Inspired by industrial design, this edger unequivocally evokes the robustness of the German brand. One of the Weco E6’s key development features has been the highest possible productivity without compromising edging results. This edger comes with every function to cater for today’s opticians’ needs.

Adapts to any frame: tilting stylus

The innovative tilting mechanism always keeps the stylus perpendicular to the frame groove, despite the type of frame. All frames, from small to large and flat to curved (up to base 9) can be traced binocularly.

Wavefront Technology

For the first time in Retail Finishing, see actual progressive lens layout designs before you edge. The Weco C6 features to ability to measure all types of multifocal lenses including those with prism with ease. Save time and money by incorporating lensometry into the finishing process.

Tailor-made Shape Modification

The Weco C6 offers multiple shape modification functions that will enable you to achieve optimal results. Combined with patented Power Map technology, you can modify shapes as needed to fit and fully customize each lens you process.

Interface: Clear and ergonomic

The large and tiltable touch screen combines simplicity with modern ergonomics. All available edging programs are directly accessible. The corresponding parameters are displayed on the screen and can be easily personalised if necessary. For any given job both the left and the right eye are displayed simultaneously. Furthermore, the parameters for the second lens can be adjusted whilst the first lens is being processed.

Bevels: individual and flexible

The individual processing of the bevel is one of the Weco E6 S line‘s many key features. The height of the bevel can be adjusted to match the thin frame groove, thereby achieving perfect fit. It is also possible to adjust the bevel of each section independently. This processing mode is based on the principle of the “tilted bevel system”. Here, the bevel is slightly tilted backwards to get a better grip on the groove of frames with a high curve. Due to the small diameter of the diamond wheels, an aesthetical and functionally flawless bevel is achieved, particularly in the case of high curve lens/frame combinations.
With the partial processing cycle it is now also possible to combine a V-Bevel with rimless or groove. The 15° Tilt of the new Step Bevel makes this process unique in retail edging and fulfills the requirements of a perfect wrap frame’s glazing. Sport frames, which show an asymmetric profile, can only be produced perfectly with a Step Bevel.

Design: practical and functional

An edger must make life easier for the optician. The Weco E6 S line was designed with a small footprint, which allows for easy integration into smaller workshops. To better organize the workflow, a tray is incorporated into the design, where blocks and lenses can be placed. In addition, the Weco E6 S line includes an integrated barcode reader that is able to scan job trays directly. This helps maintain the most accurate control even in a high-volume situation.
