1. July 2013 Fiscal Year 2012 (June 30th, 2013)

2. Here is our philosophy: innovating the working
process in the optical field, providing new solutions
that allow the labs, lenses and frames manufacturers
to increase their flexibility and production rate, by
simplifying the process and reducing production
costs.

3. • Founded in 1985
• In the beginning, Mei designed and provided customized
machineries for factory automation and for electronically
controlled multi axe machining.
• In the ’90s the main Italian eyewear manufacturers asked
the first industrial edger for solar lenses and masks
• In 2002 the MonospheraRX-DD was born: the first milling
technology industrial edger for ophthalmic lenses
• In 2013 Mei presented TBA Unit an inspection unit, able to
work ophthalmic lenses without using blocks and adhesive
pads.

4. • During 2012 fiscal year Mei installed 51 TBA Unit. Some of
them have been installed together with Bisphera-XDD,
some others have upgraded existent Bisphera-XDD. TBA
Unit is now able to read and load single-vision,
progressive and bifocal lenses, as well as gradient tinted
and lenses with commercial logo.
• At MIDO 2013 Mei presented EzFit a compact edger for
small labs and shops. The machine using always the same
technology with a smaller footprint.
