Features

• Versatile patternless edging for ophthalmic lens finishing
• 5-axis 3D drilling and sub-spindle for drilling, safety beveling and grooving
• Optional high base curve bevel (Trend8) and flexible lens clamping for axis stability

Overview
The LEXCE plus Trend8/Trend is a patternless edger designed for ophthalmic labs and optical workshops. With multiple model configurations and peripheral options, it adapts to workflows from low-volume bespoke jobs to approximately 80 jobs per standard 8-hour day. Processing throughput depends on lens materials, processing settings and device condition.

High base curve bevel (Trend8)
Bevel height and width are freely adjustable to match frame material and rim profile. Front and rear bevels are ground independently to maintain precise bevel geometry. (Available for the LEXCE plus Trend8)

3D drilling optimally controlled by 5-axis
Supports a wide range of frame styles and hole types. Drilling angles can be set automatically or manually for precise positioning. The hole editing screen provides up to 6× magnification for accurate adjustments. The integrated sub-spindle unit performs drilling as well as safety beveling and grooving across various lens materials.

Axis stability

• Flexible lens clamp — adaptive clamp moves laterally along the lens rear curve to stabilize off-center cups or steep base curves, reducing PD and axis shift during edging.
• NIDEK double-coated adhesive pad — designed to secure cup adhesion to the lens; correct application optimizes hold and repeatability.

Intelligent blocker
The intelligent blocker offers dual lens stages to accommodate a wide range of lens sizes, including small and demo lenses, and an enlarged blocking screen to improve visibility of lens markings for accurate setup.

3D frame tracing with full auto clamping (optional)
Binocular measurement of 1,000 points per eye enables accurate frame tracing, including measurements on high-curve frames.

Operation and serviceability

• Selectable user interface — 7-inch color LCD touchscreen with three operation modes for intuitive control.
• Superior serviceability — maintenance monitor tracks consumable usage and a self-check function diagnoses selected components and outputs results as a 2D barcode to support fast service.
