Automatic coater SYRUS 1100

film

Overview
The SYRUS 1100 is an industrial vacuum coating system for ophthalmic lenses, designed for large-batch stock-lens mass production and RX (prescription) manufacturing. It supports broadband AR, mirror and specialty optical coatings with configurable chamber sizes and process modules.

Key benefits

• Optimized for large volumes: Configured for high-throughput stock and RX production, typical output ranges from 350 to 960 pairs in 8 hours depending on process and layout.
• Competitive cost per lens: Uniform coating distribution and reproducible color stability across the calotte minimize rejects and lower unit manufacturing cost.
• Flexible chamber options: Available in standard chamber diameters 1100 mm and 1350 mm to match production capacity requirements.

Highlight features

• High throughput cycle-times: Optimized pumping stacks and Meissner trap systems deliver fast pump-down and reduced door-to-door cycle times.
• Uniformity control: Up to two distribution/uniformity masks (one fixed, one movable) to adapt deposition profiles and maximize usable yield.
• Modular evaporation systems: Supports electron-beam guns, thermal evaporators and ion sources; easy-to-replace proprietary crucibles for faster material changes.

Other features

• Serviceability and connectivity: Network-ready for remote analysis, data logging and remote software updates to support uptime and traceability.
• Process portfolio: Wide selection of proven process devices and layer stacks, plus customer-specific process development.
• Process safety and control: Advanced user interface and multiple quartz-crystal sensors for automated process monitoring and control.

Applications

• Broadband anti-reflection (AR) coatings, mirror and fashion coatings, stock-lens mass production and large-batch RX lens manufacturing.
