The PRO-E 700: performance and versatility for the modern optician
The PRO-E 700 is a professional edger developed by Essilor Instruments, designed to offer maximum precision in the cutting and finishing of ophthalmic lenses. It incorporates technology that allows automated or fully customised machining, depending on the practitioner's needs. This model is particularly suitable for complex lenses, sports frames and creative work thanks to its many exclusive features.
State-of-the-art finishes and complete customisation
The PRO-E 700 supports a wide range of finishes: classic bevel, high base bevel, step bevel, flat edge finish, grooving, drilling, polishing, standard or "Super Chamfer" chamfering, and reworking. It also allows mixed jobs (e.g. bevel + groove) and complex drilling (holes, notches, oblongs). Each finish can be configured in automatic or custom mode, with precise adjustments to position, depth, width and angle depending on the type of material and the shape of the glass.
Custom mode offers total control over the trajectory of the chamfer or groove, with options for tracking the front face, rear face, curvature of the glass or edge of the frame. The user can modify the curve globally or point by point, or even move it without altering its shape.
Exclusive PRO-E 700 features: engraving and creative shapes
The PRO-E 700 includes features such as M'EYE Sign™ for custom engraving on lenses (excluding mineral glass) and M'EYE Touch™ for creating creative shapes. These features allow patterns, text or logos to be added to lenses, with precise positioning and sizing via Essibox or directly on the edger. The system can handle up to 500 jobs in series for engraving, with centring and blocking data saved.
The PRO-E 700 is also compatible with Chemistrie™ jobs, allowing additional magnetic clips (near vision, solar, blue light blocking, 3D) to be cut from the original ophthalmic lenses.
