VFT-orbit combines the proven core components from the VFT-ultra series with a radical new approach to moving the various axes of lens and tools. We call it Circumvolution Technology. The various work stations for tools and lens loading are arranged in an orbital shape around a central rotating lens axis. This arrangement enabled our engineers to design a single point turning generator with numerous benefits. All presently known lens formats and organic lens materials can be generated.
The VFT-orbit generator family features two additional models: the VFT-orbit-L and the VFT-orbit-M.

Orbital alignment of tool axes
Eight blade PCD milling tool
Optimized lens clamping system
for high RPM processing
Fast lens loading system
Easy access to utility supply
