At the same time, the two lens pressing and positioning tools 5 in the second Y-axis transport mechanism 3 move to the second loading station at one end of the guide rail 32, and the loading robot clamps the lenses 8 in turn and places them on the two lens pressing and positioning tools 5, and the lens pressing and positioning tools 5 press and position the lenses 8; then the controlled carrying platform 33 carries the corresponding lens pressing and positioning tools 5 to move to the third processing station and the fourth processing station respectively to wait for processing.
[0062] When the lens 8 on the first Y-axis transport mechanism 3 is processed, the Z-axis transport mechanism 4 moves along the X-axis to the second Y-axis transport mechanism 3. After the processing electric spindle module 6 moves to the right position, the lens 8 on the second Y-axis transport mechanism 3 that has moved to the third or fourth processing station and visually positioned can be directly processed without stopping for waiting. At the same time, the two lens pressing and positioning fixtures 5 on the first Y-axis transport mechanism 3 carry the processed lens 8 to the first unloading station at the other end of the guide rail 32. After the unloading robot 15 takes away the lens 8, the lens pressing and positioning fixtures 5 return to the first loading station to prepare for the next transport processing cycle.
