Products Description

 

Dimensional Precision: CNC-machined frame fronts and temples maintain strict geometric alignment (+/- 0.1 mm tolerance) to prevent lens distortion during optical edging.

 

Structural Core Wire: Integrated high-tensile metal wire cores inside the temples allow precise post-heating adjustments by opticians without compromising frame integrity.

 

Multi-Barrel Hinge Integration: Equipped with heavy-duty 5-barrel or 7-barrel hinges secured by threaded screws, providing robust rotational durability under daily use.

 

Hand-Polished Finish: 72-hour barrel tumbling followed by manual wheel polishing removes surface micro-scratches, yielding a deep, mirror-like gloss and smooth tactile feel.

 

Hypoallergenic Comfort: Cellulose acetate material is derived from natural wood and cotton fibers, offering sweat resistance and non-irritating skin contact.

Frame Construction

 

Front Beveling & Groove Milling: The lens groove (beveled V-groove or U-groove) is CNC-milled to precise depth angles, ensuring secure retention of prescription demo lenses or optical Rx lenses.

 

Temple Core Insertion: Metal core wires are inserted into acetate temple strips via thermal hydraulic press machines, locking structural strength inside the raw material.

 

Bridge & Nose Pad Integration: Integrated saddle bridges or sculpted universal nose pads are engineered to distribute frame weight evenly across the nasal bridge.

 

Hardware Anchoring: Rivet hinges are heat-pressed into the frame front and temples, anchoring metal joints deep into the acetate matrix to prevent pull-out under stress.

 

Design & Size Options

 

Profile Geometries: Classic square, soft-square, and geometric angular cuts suitable for diverse facial structures.

 

Color Finishes: Solid black, crystal clear, Havana tortoiseshell, multi-layer gradient laminates, and custom Pantone color matching.

 

Thickness Options: Standard 4.0 mm, 5.0 mm, or heavy-duty 6.0 mm acetate sheets for bold, statement aesthetics.

 

Custom Sizing: Scalable grading for men's, women's, and unisex collections based on client-provided technical drawings or physical samples.

 

OEM & ODM Customization

 

Logo Execution: Laser engraving, metal plaque inlay, foil stamping, or interior core-wire branding visible through transparent acetate.

 

Hardware Customization: Custom-engraved temple tips, branded screw heads, and proprietary hinge designs.

 

Sample Development: Rapid prototyping via 3D printing for geometric evaluation, followed by hand-carved acetate master samples within 7-10 working days.

 

Packaging Solutions: Custom branded hard cases, microfiber cleaning cloths, polybags, and outer cartons printed with barcode/UPC labels.

 

Manufacturing & Quality Control

 

Production operations are executed in-house across dedicated cutting, milling, tumbling, and assembly lines, supported by systematic quality checkpoints:

 

Raw Material Seasoning: Acetate sheets undergo climate-controlled resting to eliminate internal material stress prior to cutting.

 

Dimensional Inspection: 100% Vernier caliper verification of lens caliber, bridge width, and temple spread against approved engineering drawings.

 

Hinge Fatigue Testing: Sample batches undergo mechanical opening/closing cycle tests (minimum 5,000 cycles) to verify hinge torque retention.

 

Stress & Drop Testing: Finished frames are subjected to thermal aging and drop tests to detect micro-cracks in hinges or brittle zones.

 

AQL 2.5 Standard: Final inspections follow ISO 2859-1 (AQL 2.5 major, 4.0 minor) sampling criteria prior to bulk carton sealing.

 

Applications

 

Prescription Optical Stores: Direct compatibility with single-vision, progressive, and bi-focal prescription lenses.

 

Blue Light Blocking Collections: Factory-fitted with anti-glare blue light filtering demo lenses for screen-time protection lines.

 

Fashion Retail Brands: Core staple items for seasonal private-label optical and sun-wear collections.

FAQ

 

Q: What is the standard MOQ for custom color acetate sheets in OEM orders?

A: For custom Pantone-matched acetate laminates, the raw material supplier MOQ is typically 300 sheets (yielding approx. 1,200 to 1,500 frames). For standard stock colors, our production MOQ is 300 pcs per model, which can be distributed across 3 colorways.

Q: How do you prevent frame shrinkage or warping during bulk manufacturing?

A: We mitigate shrinkage by utilizing seasoned cellulose acetate blocks aged in temperature-controlled warehouses, combined with controlled drying intervals between CNC milling and manual tumbling stages to relieve internal material stress.

Q: Are these frames compatible with high-index or heavy prescription lenses?

A: Yes. The 5.0 mm and 6.0 mm frame variants feature robust groove depths and structural core wires, providing sufficient rim rigidity to support high-index thin lenses as well as heavier progressive prescriptions without edge cracking.

Q: What compliance documentation is provided for export to the US and European markets?

A: We supply material safety test reports confirming compliance with EU REACH, RoHS, and CE optical frame standards (ISO 12870). Third-party laboratory testing certificates (such as SGS or Intertek) can be arranged upon request prior to shipment.

Q: Can you engrave our private brand logo on the core wire and temple tips?

A: Yes. We support laser engraving on the visible inner temple core wire, hot-stamping on the inner tip, and custom metal emblem plating embedded directly into the left or right temple surface.

Q: What is your standard procedure if a batch fails pre-shipment inspection (PSI)?

A: If any major defects exceeding AQL 2.5 thresholds are identified during final inspection, the non-conforming units are isolated for immediate rework or remanufacturing before shipment release, with photographic discrepancy reports issued to the client.
