MF5 front machine

The OAXA MF5 machine is an automatic 5 axis machine which enables all manufacturing steps on acetate spectacle fronts.
Operation is automatic, and does not require supervision.

5 axis milling

The OAXA MF5 machine features simultaneous 5 axis milling characteristics which are currently unrivaled :

Milling intricacy: Thanks to the Lona4 software, based on “downstream process” and specifically designed for use in the eyewear industry, users have an unequaled creative potential within complex 5 axis manufacturing, which is unrivaled today.

Surface shape condition: OAXA MF5 machine produces the best surface finish of 5 axis manufacturing currently available on the market.

Precise

CNC machining offers an accuracy of + or – 0.02 mm with a perfect surface finish.

Flexible

The programming of the MF5 is made simple thanks to the Lona4 software based on “downstream process” an OAXA innovation.
The machining as well as the extensibles, the centering eye shape and even the bending tools are rapidly and automatically generated from the model.
The changeover of the front model is very fast.

Automatic

The OAXA MF5 machine is fully automatic: material loading, machining, finishing, turnover of the spectacle front, hinge housings, and ejection of the finished frame.
The machine is designed to operate unattended
