Briot
USA Introduces the New Alta XS |
|
Cumming, GA. Briot
USA, the leader in edging equipment innovation,
introduced the new Alta XS finishing system at Vision
Expo West in Las Vegas.
The new Alta XS is the company’s latest
addition to the Alta generation of finishing equipment.
“Once
again Briot is proud to announce the launch of state of
the art equipment to make edging lenses easier and more
affordable for all practices” said Bret Davis,
President of Briot USA.

The
Alta XS system features a new tracing, centering and
blocking unit that is even more compact and innovative
in design.
New features of the Alta XS include a
comprehensive touch screen interface to manage all
functions of the unit.
The high-resolution optical system (25 frames per
second), as well as the zoom function, make centering
easier.
A new shape library, customizable through an
alphanumeric keypad, organizes data to be easily
accessed through Sort, Search, Favorites and other
criteria.
“Magic blue” illumination of the lens is
adjusted according to lens tint and external light
(natural or artificial) making it easy to center and
block even polarized lenses.

Like
the Alta XL unit, the Alta XS uses Briot’s patented PROS
optical recognition system for identifying shape and
drilling coordinates, and Briot’s Digiform software for
shape modification.
Paired
with the Alta NX edger, the Alta XS system allows for the
same accuracy and ease of use as the Alta XL system.
Although the Alta XL remains Briot’s top-of-the-line
tracer/blocker, with the introduction of the XS system, even
more ECP’s can enjoy state-of-the-art technology at a more
affordable price.
“The
Alta XS is an advanced and affordable addition to the
already established Alta edging system and we look forward
to its continued success in our market place,” adds Davis.
Once
again, Briot sets the standard in new developments in
finishing equipment. |
