LC-50 and LC-120 centering machines from Nakamura-Tome provide centering for high-volume lens manufacturers. They feature automated loading and unloading capabilities, combine the robot and stocker to save space, and are NC-controlled. The LC-50 has a lens range of 2 to 55 mm, and the LC-120 has 30 to 120 mm.

FIGURE 1. In the scalable setting of a spatial photonic Ising machine, binary spins are encoded in the phase of a laser beam (green) by spatial modulation. Tailoring of the beam’s amplitude fixes spin-spin interaction. To find the ground-state spin configuration, the machine recurrently evolves according to a feedback signal from the camera plane. By design, maximizing the intensity in a target region (blue square) corresponds to a spin state with minimum energy.
