Huvitz Automatic Edger HPE-990

Designed to deliver maximum efficiency and precision, this reference guide presents the optimal configurations of the HPE-990 edger for different lens materials, enabling optical professionals to consistently achieve flawless results.

By following these customized parameters, greater lens protection is ensured, equipment service life is extended, and productivity is maximized, helping to maintain the highest standards of quality and service in the optical laboratory.

Power and Precision for Demanding Lenses
La HPE-990 processes hydrophobic and curved lenses with 1.7 times more power and advanced axis control, ensuring fast, slip-free processing.

1.7x Power and 1.5x Speed – Maximum Power Wheel Motor
Experience unmatched speed and control with the enhanced wheel motor, delivering 1.7 times more power and 1.5 times faster processing speed than previous models. This improved performance enables precise edging even on ultra-hydrophobic polycarbonate lenses without compromising safety.
The advanced hydrophobic mode enhances safety by allowing pressure, speed, and key functions to be controlled with a single touch. Combined with deep edging capabilities and bevel finishes up to base 10, powered by the new RPDA wheel type, this system represents the core of the Ultimate Finishing Solution.

Stable Processing and Axis Control / Blocking System

The improved clamp and extra-large block adapter provide greater stability during processing. This design reduces the risk of misalignment and defects, while allowing a cutting force 1.7 times greater than previous models, ensuring safe and precise results even with complex materials.

Superior Precision and Durability / Metal Sensor

With an enhanced metal sensor tip, the system maintains high precision and long-term durability. Unlike traditional plastic tips, the metal sensor effectively resists the buildup of polycarbonate lens debris, ensuring cleaner operation and consistently accurate results.

Quick Fitting Completion / Size Storage by Material

The system supports four frame types: metal, rigid plastic, flexible plastic, and Ultem, and allows pre-registering size standards for each material.

This feature speeds up the fitting process by automatically applying optimal size parameters based on the selected frame type, reducing manual adjustments and increasing efficiency.

Precise Finishing / Retouching Function

If the initial bevel does not fit the frame perfectly, the system allows retouching the bevel height to achieve a custom mini bevel. It also supports additional operations such as angular beveling to eliminate interference at the rear edge. Depending on the lens type and job, you can insert or adjust steps such as grooving, polishing, or drilling—optimizing the fit and reducing processing time.

Intuitive 3D Simulation / Manual Position Editor

The manual position mode allows setting the ideal bevel location based on the lens curvature and thickness. With intuitive 2D editing and real-time 3D simulation, adjustments are fast and precise. For standard frames, the automatic mode aligns the processing according to the golden ratio to consistently achieve optimal results.

Intuitive Indicators / Smart LED System

A smart LED system reduces the risk of human error by clearly identifying right and left lenses through color-coded lights. Combined with the design display and the color-coded block adapter, this system streamlines workflow and prevents costly errors during lens processing.

Exclusive Deep Step Bevel Technology

Ultraprecise finishing for Lens Over Frame eyewear and complex shapes, powered by the HPE-990 with integrated high-speed drill.

Optimized for Overframe Lenses / Deep Step Bevel

Designed for modern frame styles—including Lens Over Frame eyewear—the HPE-990 supports deep step beveling of up to 20 mm and beyond. With two bevel types and five edge styles, it enables multiple processing options such as beveling, grooving, and custom finishes.

Wide Beveling Options / 35 Stepped Bevel Styles

With 7 bevel types and 5 distinct edge profiles, the HPE-990 offers 35 unique beveling combinations to ensure a perfect fit for any frame design or lens requirement.

Versatile Hybrid Processing / Perfect Combinations

Combining multiple techniques, the system offers four hybrid processing modes that enhance the aesthetics and functionality of frames:
* Partial Grooving (Grooving + Rimless)
* Double Grooving (Basic Grooving + Special Grooving)
* Hybrid Grooving (Grooving + Bevel)
* Partial Bevel (Rimless + Bevel)

Integrated Drilling System / All-in-One Workflow

Equipped with a built-in high-speed drill, the HPE-990 effortlessly processes even complex Semi-T bevel shapes, delivering results twice as fast as previous models. From drilling to deep beveling, this all-in-one system optimizes lens finishing for maximum efficiency.

Precision Customization / Step Bevel Editor

Achieve fully customized results with the ability to process complete or partial step bevels on the front, back, or both sides of the lens, offering up to seven distinct step bevel types. Edge finishes can be precisely adjusted to fit frame grooves, with options such as rimless, beveled, grooved, or flat bevel for a perfect fit.

Versatile Design Implementation / Scan & Cut Data Editor
The integrated Scan & Cut editor allows precise adjustments to lens shapes, such as removing or resizing ventilation holes. It also supports grooving on concave lens profiles, making it ideal for handcrafted frames and unique, customized designs—perfect for private labels and boutique optical collections.

Powerful Performance, Faster Workflow

Equipped with a reinforced wheel motor of 1,250W running at 5,000 rpm, the HPE-990 delivers significantly faster cutting speeds. Drilling work has also been optimized thanks to its high-speed rotation. As the fastest edger in the Huvitz line, the HPE-990 ensures highly efficient performance without compromising precision.
