Sydor Optics, a global leader in custom optical manufacturing based in Rochester, NY, produces high precision optics using advanced fabrication technologies. The company sought to optimize its manual beveling process, which was tedious, labor intensive, and ergonomically challenging.

To automate the process, Sydor purchased an OptiPro Revel, a turnkey robotic beveling solution. This FANUC Cobot and Go system employs a FANUC CRX-10iA/L collaborative robot, enabling each part to be beveled on both sides in one uninterrupted cycle.

This automated solution has increased Sydor’s daily production throughput by approximately 40 percent. The Revel can run unattended, freeing employees for other tasks and increasing beveling time during off shifts. Additionally, the system produces parts with consistent quality, reducing variability and rework.

With this automation, as well as the company’s CNC machining success using FANUC ROBODRILL Plus machining centers, Sydor Optics delivers high quality parts on time and to specification—allowing them to meet and exceed customer expectations.
