8. Blocking a lens

This section describes the procedures for lens blocking depending on the selected option:

a. Prepare blocking

Several accessories are available to perform blocking:

posiblocks and pads

tubes

Posiblocks and pads

22 mm posiblock

18x14 mm posiblock

Magnet

Fin

Tab

The posiblocks and their corresponding pads are supplied with the edger.

Always use Essilor pads: they are specially designed to ensure the performance of your machine for quality jobs.

The pads are non re-usable.

Do not stick pads on posiblocks in advance as they may loose some of their holding power.

The posiblock must never be placed on the rear (inner) surface of the lens.

Blocking in Boxing center or in optical center

Depending on your working practice, you can choose to block the lenses:

in the boxing center of the shape (recommended),

in the optical center.

In the event of blocking in the optical center, the posiblock position on the shape may be off center.
