Defying the pandemic with remote startups

Enabling ophthalmic lens manufacturers to start up newly delivered 3D-Micromac systems for laser engraving despite COVID-19

Manufacturing companies in the ophthalmic industry cannot afford to let new production equipment sit unused because their supplier’s commissioning team cannot travel to the site due to COVID-19. 3D-Micromac has therefore developed a modern and at the same time pragmatic alternative to classic commissioning for its customers: its technicians guide the customer’s employees step by step through the entire commissioning process using the latest remote technologies and augmented reality (AR) – from assembly to start-up and test run to acceptance.
