Why can’t I add a chamfer to a mixed job on the Essilor Mr Blue 2.0?

The answer

The Mr Blue 2.0 does not permit chamfering on a mixed job. Select the required bevel, groove or flat-edge combination without a chamfer, because the mixed-finish screen disables that option.

Filed under Settings & modes

A mixed job combines two finish types in different areas of the same lens, such as Bevel–Groove, Flat-edge–Groove or Flat-edge–Bevel. The machine requires the operator to define the two areas and does not provide chamfering as an additional mixed-job operation.

  • Call up the traced shape.
  • Select the mixed job.
  • Define the finish for area 1 and area 2.
  • Choose whether to polish the lens.
  • Do not expect a chamfer control: the manual states that chamfering cannot be performed on a mixed job.

This limitation is specific to the mixed-job workflow. It does not mean that chamfering is unavailable for ordinary bevel, groove or flat-edge jobs.
