Lens Grinding

In 1983 an optical revolution began. Although it seems commonplace today, in 1983 there was no “one-stop shopping” for vision care and eyewear—until a major lens company came on the scene. LensCrafters was the first company of its kind to offer the convenience of getting an eye exam and choosing stylish frames fitted with the latest high tech lenses in one location. What’s more, LensCrafters was able to make most glasses at their on-site lab in only about an hour.

We recognized early on that eyeglasses, as well as sunglasses and watches, are not just necessities. They are fashion accessories that speak volumes about those who wear them. To enable customers to change their statements of style more easily, they were offered the most desirable brands, at over 850 locations in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.

ServoCon ALPHA has been a major supplier of servovalves, cylinders, filters and strainers and other fluid power controls for the lens grinding machines around the world.
