Production process.
The manufacturing of spectacles involves the production of lenses as well as frames. Production Process of Lenses:
There are different machines used for making lenses. These machines are very expensive. In US dollars their prices range from $500 upto $7000. Lenses are manufactured in four basic parts:
1. Casting-lenses are produced from raw chemicals using a chemical process.
2. Moulding-lens material is reshaped by pressure and heat into the finished or semi-finished lens form.
3. Multi-part systems-These are systems such as laminating and fusing, where two or more pieces are joined to form the final lens (e.g. used glass bifocals).
4. Surfacing- The lens materials already exist and cutting and/or grinding and polishing is used to create the lens form.

Lenses are visually checked for scratches, chips, rough edges, or other blemishes.
3. The optical prescription is visually checked before the lenses are viewed in the lensometer, and the optics are verified while the lenses are in the lensometer.
4. Frame alignment is measured and verified with a ruler.
Production Process of Frames:
As seen in lenses, there are several machines used in the making of frames as well. All the frames are generally manufactured in China. The production of a plastic frame goes through the process of blocking, polishing and beveling. Frames too have a long production procedure.
1. It goes through the procedure of die-cutting.
2. After that the temples are made. The two side arms that curve around the ears are called temples.
3. This is followed by finishing the fronts that is attaching the hinges to the frame.
4. The final step is finishing up the temples that is shaping and styling the eyeglasses.
Spectacle frame manufacturing equipment price ranges from $10,000 upto $45,000. Whereas the laser cutting machine or metal cutting equipment price ranges from $10,000 upto $20,000.There is a lot of cost incurred in the production process of
Manufacturing – within a business the manufacturing department works alongside several other departments such as marketing and purchasing to make sure that they manufacture products efficiently. Manufacturing is generally a long process as detailed designs of products have to be assembled before construction can begin. Manufacturing varies can depend on the organisation type large companies are likely to manufacture products themselves, and they tend to do this on a large scale in order to be able to buy resources in bulk in order to save a substantial amount of money. Small businesses tend to design their own products but may not have the ability to manufacture; therefore they usually hire other companies to manufacture for them - this can be quite costly, so they commonly perform manufacturing on a large scale
These hinges were specific to the Optical Company of Rochester, New York (Grant 172). The company had told them the glasses were one of only three pairs. The police found that one pair belonged to a man out of the country at the time, the second pair belonged to a woman who was able to prove she had possession of them, and the final person was Leopold who upon not being able to show the glasses was arrested. However they had created an alibi: If they were caught before one week they would say they were at Lincoln Park with a couple of girls, if they got caught after one week they would say they didn’t remember where they were or what they did. Leopold did use

“No two persons read the same book ever” (Edmund Wilson). The way people comprehend books can vary from person to person. Some may be offended by it’s contents, but others may think it’s completely appropriate. The Marbury Lens by Andrew Smith, has had the same reaction. When Andrew Smith was writing this book, he was trying to get fired.
My Ethical lens inventory was to Relationship Lens. I use my reasoning skills Ethical Issue Related to Patient’s Safety 4 (rationality) to determine what processes and systems should be put into place to assure fairness and justice for all in the community (equality). Relationships lens means Fair Systems. For example, what relationships are important? what is a just system?

Warby Parker goal is: “to offer designer eyewear at a revolutionary price, while leading the way for socially conscious businesses” Warby Parker distributes a pair of prescription eyeglasses at 95$ mainly by online.
Focus the eyepieces to adjust your view. 3. Adjust the illumination to an appropriate level by adjusting the iris diaphragm and the condenser. The light should appear on the side directly below the objective lens, and give an even amount of illumination. 4.
The main body is broken into three sections. There is the abdomen, thorax,
Welding is a great job but not many people know what welding is or how it work. According to Thomas net welding is the process of joining metal together with heat welders can work on many kind of structures such as mobile homes, pipes, steel reinforcement and others. Because welding is a relatively easy manufacturing process and provide a great deal of strength (Thomas).To become a welder you need four skills the first skill you need is problem solving because welder must be exceptional problem solver who pay attention to details. They have to spot flaws in materials and designs troubleshoot broken areas and know to fix parts or equipment. The second skill math and science welders constantly use their knowledge of fundamental science and math
3Cs (Customer) The differentiation value of 1-D Acuvue is convenience and the comfort of the product and less medical complications and hence unscheduled visitors to the opticians. Taking into consideration the past experience of the patients using VCP, the most likely potential users of 1 Day Acutuve will be current disposable lens users, However, despite the high potential the trial launch in western states has proven that the majority of patients are so-called “part-time users”, those who use both type of vision correction products (VCP): spectacles and lenses, with the average use of contact lenses being 4.4 days a week. Therefore the the primary market segment for 1-D Acuvue should be the the part-time contact lens wearer (~4 million
After all of this, Rendering begins. Rendering is what takes most time, hence most companies have specific computer Render Farms for their rendering. Post-Production The last phase of the 3D Animation workflow is Post-Production. This includes all tasks that can only begin after all the raw footages have been rendered and collected.
Nowadays, technology devices become plays an important role in our daily lives, especially in adolescents’ categories. While there is a very clear argument for how the technology is effected on us and causing social isolation as we know, but in another way is also the argument that these technologies are helping us to become more social in our society. This is very probably because we have a good and perfect ability to communicate with each other. Despite long distances. We all know that the goal of technology is to make our lives easier and more efficient.
Process Strategies The process strategies, for such a large manufacturing company, would need to be varied. The production process type would be determined by the product life cycle stage at that time (Thayer 2004).Product life cycles for items such as smartphones and tablets do not generally follow the standard life cycle stages. The maturity stage can be interrupted by discontinuation or irrelevance of a technology, which recommences the cycle (Giachetti & Marchi 2010). Incidentally, during the product life cycle of these items, a cyclic improvement of both process and product is required to stay in contact with market changes.
Coordinate with customer relationship management to identify customer articulated needs 2. Select materials and suppliers in conjunction with procurement 3. Develop production technology in manufacturing flow to manufacture and integrate in to the best supply chain flow for the product/market combination G. Manufacturing Flow Management The manufacturing process produces and supplies products to the distribution channels based on past forecasts. The production process has to be flexible to respond to market changes and Mass Customization must absorb.
AC 2.1 – Evaluate the effectiveness of strategies used by IKEA to maintain supplier relationships and evaluate the effectiveness of these strategies. Proficient administration of suppliers is the vital path for assembling organizations can propel their execution. There are numerous huge parts of supplier administration; they join sourcing methodologies, and the way connections are overseen and the data trade arrangements embraced by IKEA.
