[0019] The production of contact lens molds in the related art is to manufacture in sequence according to the manufacturing process and procedures, and the contact lens molds are inspected by manufacturing equipment, and after manufacturing, random sampling or re-inspection is performed manually to obtain qualified products, semi-finished products (semi-finished products need to be reprocessed and repaired in one or more manufacturing steps) and defective products (defective products need to be reprocessed and repaired in one or more manufacturing steps). Semi-finished products and defective products are caused by abnormal fluctuations or other failures of the equipment. In order to save costs or reduce waste, the existing technology usually repairs semi-finished products and defective products independently. The independent repair requirements are different, and the equipment is frequently switched. Moreover, during the independent repair, the new batch of contact lens molds to be produced will be temporarily unable to be produced, resulting in poor production continuity, time-consuming and inefficient technical problems.

[0020] To address the aforementioned issues, embodiments of the present application provide a fully automated contact lens mold manufacturing method and contact lens mold. This method obtains a production signal, determines process material information on an initial placement platform when the production signal's duration meets a required duration, and controls contact lens mold manufacturing equipment based on the process material information to manufacture the contact lens mold. This reduces time costs, reduces the frequent equipment switching issues associated with independent repairs, and avoids the temporary inability to produce a new batch of contact lens molds during independent repairs, thereby improving production continuity and manufacturing efficiency.

[0021] The fully automatic manufacturing method for contact lens molds provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to fully automatic manufacturing equipment for contact lens molds. At this time, the fully automatic manufacturing equipment for contact lens molds is the executor of the fully automatic manufacturing method for contact lens molds provided in the embodiment of the present application. The embodiment of the present application does not impose any restrictions on the specific type of fully automatic manufacturing equipment for contact lens molds.

[0022] For example, the fully automatic manufacturing equipment for contact lens molds includes a control device and the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment; the control device and the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment are communicatively connected; the control device can be a terminal device such as a tablet computer, a laptop computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, a desktop computer, a smart large screen, a smart TV, a handheld device with wireless communication function, a computer, a laptop computer, etc. Contact lens mold manufacturing equipment may include but is not limited to mechanical polishing machines, laser interferometers, assembly tables, fatigue testing machines, rotational molding equipment, and other equipment used to manufacture contact lens molds; among them, the mechanical polishing machine is to grind and polish the surface of the mold after rotational molding to eliminate surface scratches and burrs, so that the roughness reaches the μm level (for example, Ra ≤ 0.1 μm) to meet the optical requirements of contact lenses; the laser interferometer is to detect the shape error (for example, surface accuracy PV value, roughness) and optical properties of the mold surface to ensure that the mold surface meets the design standards (for example, sphericity ≤ 50 nm); the assembly table is to assemble the various functional components of the mold (such as upper and lower molds, positioning pins, sealing rings) into a complete mold to ensure that the coaxiality and sealing of each component meet the requirements; the fatigue testing machine is to simulate the mold Under the stress state during repeated use, its fatigue resistance (such as the number of opening and closing times, wear resistance) is tested to avoid mold failure during mass production; the rotational molding equipment rotates the mold raw materials (such as optical-grade resins, metal alloys) and uses centrifugal force to evenly distribute and shape them, forming the basic outline of the contact lens mold (such as the curvature structure of the concave and convex surfaces); in addition, the discharge port of the rotational molding equipment and the loading table of the mechanical polishing machine are connected by a conveyor belt or manually, so that the mold prototype can be accurately positioned at the polishing station. The unloading table of the mechanical polishing machine and the detection platform of the laser interferometer are connected by a high-precision translation table (positioning accuracy of ±5μm) to avoid workpiece handling errors. The finished product output end of the assembly table is connected to the tooling fixture of the fatigue testing machine through mechanical locating pins to ensure that the coaxiality of the mold installation is ≤10μm during testing.

[0023] In order to better understand the fully automatic manufacturing method of contact lens molds provided in the embodiments of the present application, the specific implementation process of the fully automatic manufacturing method of contact lens molds provided in the embodiments of the present application is exemplarily introduced below.

[0024] Figure 1 A schematic flow chart of a fully automatic manufacturing method for a contact lens mold provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown. The fully automatic manufacturing method for a contact lens mold includes: S100, obtaining a production signal; wherein the production signal is a signal generated after a manufacturing switch on a contact lens mold manufacturing device is triggered.

[0025] Exemplarily, obtaining a production signal can be achieved by providing a sensor on the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment. The sensor can detect when a manufacturing switch is triggered and generate a corresponding production signal; for example, the sensor can be configured as a mechanical switch sensor or a photoelectric switch sensor. The mechanical switch sensor can detect a change in the state of the manufacturing switch through mechanical contact. When the manufacturing switch is pressed or triggered, the mechanical switch sensor closes or opens the circuit, thereby generating a production signal. The photoelectric switch sensor can detect a change in the state of the manufacturing switch by blocking or reflecting light. When the manufacturing switch is triggered, it blocks or reflects light. After receiving the corresponding light signal, the photoelectric switch sensor converts it into an electrical signal as a production signal.

[0026] S200, when the duration of the production signal reaches the time requirement, determine the process material information on the initial placement platform; wherein the process material information is used to indicate that the material on the initial placement platform is the raw material used to manufacture the contact lens mold, the semi-finished contact lens mold or the defective contact lens mold, the initial placement platform is a component of the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment, and is used to place different materials, and the time requirement is a preset time.

[0027] It can be understood that meeting the time requirement is to meet the time spent on placing materials; specifically, the time requirement can be understood as knowing that all equipment starts working after receiving the production signal. Because when manufacturing contact lens molds, it takes time to place raw materials or other semi-finished products on the initial placement platform (it can be mechanically placed or placed in other ways), so the placement time needs to be met (that is, the time spent on placement) so that when the material indicated by the process material information on the initial placement platform is detected, the placement platform has the material indicated by the process material information (that is, it has been placed on the placement platform). If the time requirement is not met, the equipment will start detecting objects on the placement platform before the material is placed on the placement platform, which will result in a situation where there is no material on the placement platform, so the time requirement needs to be met.

[0028] In one possible implementation, see Figure 2 S200: When the duration of the production signal reaches the required duration, the process material information on the initial placement platform is determined, including: S210, when the duration of the production signal reaches the time requirement, identify the material on the initial placement platform and obtain first material information; wherein the first material information is used to indicate whether the material on the initial placement platform is non-entity or entity, the non-entity is raw material, and the entity is a semi-finished contact lens mold or a defective contact lens mold.

[0029] It can be understood that non-solid materials are raw materials. Incomplete products are materials that have not yet been processed into the shape of a complete contact lens mold. Solid materials are semi-finished contact lens molds or defective contact lens molds, which refer to finished materials that have been processed into the shape of a contact lens mold but have certain defects.

[0030] For example, identifying the material on the initial placement platform may involve capturing an image of the material on the initial placement platform using a camera or image sensor, and then recognizing the captured image to obtain the first material information. For example, color recognition, shape recognition, or texture recognition may be used to distinguish between raw materials, semi-finished contact lens molds, and defective contact lens molds.

[0031] S220: If the material on the initial placement platform indicated by the first material information is non-physical, the raw material is determined as process material information.

[0032] For example, if it is detected that the material on the initial placement platform indicated by the first material information is non-physical, the raw material is determined as the process material information.

[0033] In one possible implementation, see Figure 2 , the method further comprises: S2201: If the material on the initial placement platform indicated by the first material information is a solid, detect the size information of the solid; wherein the size information is used to indicate the diameter and height of the solid.

[0034] For example, if the material on the initial placement platform indicated by the first material information is a solid object, the diameter and height of the solid object can be measured using a laser rangefinder or mechanical measuring device to obtain the entity's dimensions. A laser rangefinder can calculate the entity's dimensions by emitting a laser beam and receiving a reflected laser beam, offering the advantages of high precision and non-contact measurement. Mechanical measuring devices can measure the entity's dimensions through mechanical contact and are suitable for measuring entities of various shapes and sizes.

[0035] S2202, determining the first part and the second part of the entity according to the diameter and height of the entity indicated by the size information; wherein the first part is the upper mold of the semi-finished contact lens mold or the defective contact lens mold, and the second part is the lower mold of the semi-finished contact lens mold or the defective contact lens mold.

[0036] For example, based on the design specifications and dimensional information of a contact lens mold, the different parts of the solid can be identified. A contact lens mold consists of two mold parts, an upper mold and a lower mold. By measuring the diameter and height of the solid and comparing them to the design specifications, it is possible to determine which part is the upper mold and which is the lower mold.

[0037] S2203, obtaining first characteristic information by detecting the first part and obtaining second characteristic information by detecting the second part; wherein the first characteristic information is used to reflect the convex surface on the upper mold of the semi-finished contact lens mold or the defective contact lens mold, and the second characteristic information is used to reflect the concave surface on the lower mold of the semi-finished contact lens mold or the defective contact lens mold.

[0038] It can be understood that the convex and concave conditions can be understood as the shape, size, surface roughness, etc. of the convex and concave surfaces. These characteristics can reflect the processing quality and precision of the semi-finished contact lens mold or defective products. For example, whether the shape of the convex and concave surfaces meets the design requirements, whether the dimensions are consistent, and whether the surface is smooth and defect-free.

[0039] For example, the first characteristic information is obtained by inspecting the first part, and the second characteristic information is obtained by inspecting the second part. The inspection method can be optical inspection, mechanical inspection, or laser inspection. Optical inspection can detect the shape, size, and surface roughness of convex and concave surfaces using devices such as cameras or image sensors, and has the advantages of non-contact measurement and high precision. Mechanical inspection can measure the characteristics of convex and concave surfaces through mechanical contact and is suitable for inspecting molds of various shapes and sizes. Laser inspection can calculate the characteristics of convex and concave surfaces by emitting a laser beam and receiving the reflected laser beam, and also has the advantages of high precision and non-contact measurement.

[0040] S2204: Determine the semi-finished contact lens mold or defective contact lens mold as process material information based on the convex surface reflected by the first characteristic information and the concave surface reflected by the second characteristic information.

[0041] For example, based on whether the shape, size, and surface roughness of the convex and concave surfaces reflected in the first and second characteristic information meet the required values ​​for the convex and concave surfaces, if the required values ​​are met, the semi-finished contact lens mold is determined as process material information. If the required values ​​are not met, the defective contact lens mold is determined as process material information.

[0042] Such a setting can reduce time costs, improve production continuity and manufacturing efficiency, and enhance the stability and reliability of the manufacturing process, providing an efficient, stable and reliable solution for the manufacture of contact lens molds.

[0043] In one possible implementation, see Figure 3 S2204, determining the semi-finished contact lens mold or defective contact lens mold as process material information based on the convex surface reflected by the first characteristic information and the concave surface reflected by the second characteristic information, including: S22041, analyzing the convex surface reflected by the first characteristic information to obtain first analysis information; wherein the first analysis information is used to reflect the multi-ring distribution of convex points on the convex surface.

[0044] For example, the analysis of the convex surface reflected by the first feature information can be performed through image processing or machine learning algorithms. The multi-ring distribution of convex points on the convex surface can reflect the processing quality and precision of the convex surface, such as the number, distribution uniformity, and size consistency of the convex points.

[0045] S22042: Analyze the concave surface reflected by the second characteristic information to obtain second analysis information; wherein the second analysis information is used to reflect the multi-ring distribution of concave points on the convex surface.

[0046] For example, the analysis of the concave surface reflected by the second characteristic information can also be performed through image processing or machine learning algorithms, etc. The multi-ring distribution of pits on the concave surface can also reflect the processing quality and accuracy of the concave surface.

[0047] S22043. Obtain result information based on the multi-ring distribution reflected by the first analysis information and the multi-ring distribution reflected by the second analysis information; wherein the result information is used to indicate the multi-ring defocus degree value on the entity.

[0048] It can be understood that the defocus value refers to the degree of deviation of the convex and concave points or pits from their ideal positions, which can quantitatively reflect the processing quality and precision. The smaller the defocus value, the higher the processing quality and precision, and vice versa.

[0049] Exemplarily, the result information is obtained based on the multi-ring distribution reflected by the first analysis information and the multi-ring distribution reflected by the second analysis information, and the defocus degree value can be calculated by comparing the difference between the actual measured convex point or concave point position and the ideal position; the ideal position is determined according to the design specifications of the contact lens mold, and the actual measured convex point or concave point position can be obtained through detection.

[0050] In addition, convex points or concave points are set on the convex surface of the upper mold or the concave surface of the lower mold, and are distributed in multiple rings. In this way, when the contact lens is formed in the upper and lower molds, multiple rings of defocus will be formed. Among them, through the above description, it adopts a gradient change defocus design through the dot matrix diffusion design, and the contact lens adopts a targeted enhancement of the defocus of the inner ring microstructure. The defocus signal near the central main visual area can inhibit the growth of the eye axis and achieve the effect of delaying vision; and for the enhancement of the defocus effect of the inner ring periphery, the mother lens adopts an aspherical design with a clear visual area, which can reduce the peripheral low-order aberrations.

[0051] S22044, when the multi-ring defocus degree value on the entity indicated by the result information does not meet the preset degree value, the entity is a defective contact lens mold, and the defective contact lens mold is determined as process material information.

[0052] For example, after obtaining the result information, a preset defocus threshold can be used to determine whether the entity is a semi-finished contact lens mold or a defective contact lens mold. If the defocus value indicated by the result information is less than or equal to the defocus threshold, the entity is determined to be a semi-finished contact lens mold and is used as process material information. If the defocus value indicated by the result information is greater than the defocus threshold, the entity is determined to be a defective contact lens mold and is used as process material information for subsequent processing or repair.

[0053] In addition, semi-finished contact lens molds meet the multi-ring defocus requirement but have other defects; defective contact lens molds do not meet the multi-ring defocus requirement, that is, those that do not meet the multi-ring defocus requirement are definitely defective contact lens molds, but can be made qualified by repairing the multi-ring defocus requirement (to be qualified, they must meet the multi-ring defocus requirement and have no other defects. If a defective contact lens mold meets the multi-ring defocus requirement but still has other defects, it can be determined as a semi-finished contact lens mold). The multi-ring defocus requirement is a mandatory condition.

[0054] This setup further improves the stability and reliability of the manufacturing process, ensuring the high quality and precision of contact lens molds. Furthermore, automated inspection and judgment reduce the likelihood of manual intervention and misjudgment, improving production efficiency and accuracy.

[0055] In one possible implementation, see Figure 3 , the method further comprises: When the multi-ring defocus degree values ​​on the entity indicated by the result information meet the preset degree values, the entity is a semi-finished contact lens mold, and the semi-finished contact lens mold is determined as process material information.

[0056] For example, when the multi-ring defocus degree value meets the preset degree value, the currently detected entity is determined to be a semi-finished contact lens mold, and the semi-finished contact lens mold is used as process material information.

[0057] S300, controlling the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment to manufacture the contact lens mold based on the process material information.

[0058] For example, different methods are used to control the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment to manufacture contact lens molds according to different process material information (the process material information indicates that the material initially placed on the platform is raw materials used to manufacture contact lens molds, semi-finished contact lens molds or defective contact lens molds).

[0059] This configuration allows for flexible response to different materials and a fully automated production process. If the process material information indicates raw materials, the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment is controlled to process the raw materials according to the preset manufacturing process to form the initial shape of the contact lens mold. If the process material information indicates a semi-finished contact lens mold, the remaining processing steps are continued based on the current state of the semi-finished product until a complete contact lens mold is obtained. If the process material information indicates a defective contact lens mold, it can be sent to the repair process for repair or treated as waste to prevent defective products from flowing into subsequent processes and affecting product quality.

[0060] In one possible implementation, S300, controlling a contact lens mold manufacturing device to manufacture a contact lens mold based on process material information, includes: S310, when the material on the initial placement platform indicated by the process material information is detected to be the only raw material used to manufacture the contact lens mold, manufacturing information is generated; wherein the manufacturing information is used to indicate the generation of all manufacturing processes and procedures from molding processing to quality inspection.

[0061] It can be understood that if the materials on the initial placement platform are detected as consisting solely of raw materials used in contact lens mold manufacturing, this can be understood as indicating that only raw materials are present on the initial placement platform, meaning that the current batch of products to be produced consists entirely of newly manufactured contact lens molds, with no need to repair semi-finished or defective products. The entire manufacturing process and procedures from molding to quality inspection can be understood as encompassing all the manufacturing processes and procedures required to produce qualified products from raw materials, including steps such as cleaning and sterilization, i.e., a complete manufacturing process or flow.

[0062] S320, controlling the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment to manufacture the raw materials into contact lens molds based on the manufacturing information.

[0063] For example, based on the manufacturing process and manufacturing technology indicated by the manufacturing information and other manufacturing conditions, the operating parameters and operation sequence of each manufacturing equipment can be accurately controlled so that the raw materials can form contact lens molds that meet the requirements after undergoing molding, curing, surface treatment and other manufacturing processes.

[0064] The specific manufacturing steps are as follows: the raw materials are molded by controlling the molding equipment to obtain a preliminary molded contact lens mold; the preliminary molded contact lens mold is solidified by controlling the curing equipment to obtain a solidified contact lens mold; and the solidified contact lens mold is surface treated to obtain a contact lens mold that meets the requirements.

[0065] With this setup, every step from raw materials to finished product can be precisely controlled and processed, thereby improving product quality and consistency. During the molding process, the raw materials are shaped into the preliminary shape of the contact lens mold under specific temperature and pressure conditions. The curing process is to ensure the shape of the mold is stable, and the mold material is solidified by heating or other curing means. The surface treatment stage is to fine-tune the surface of the mold to achieve smoothness and defect-free requirements. Each process strictly follows the instructions of the manufacturing information to ensure that the final contact lens mold meets the design requirements and quality standards. Through the above manufacturing process, fully automated production of contact lens molds can be achieved, greatly improving production efficiency and product quality. At the same time, since each step is precisely controlled and processed, it can be ensured that the final contact lens mold has high precision and high consistency to meet product quality requirements.

[0066] In one possible implementation, see Figure 4 , S300, the method further includes: S310A, when the material on the initial placement platform indicated by the process material information is detected as raw materials and contact lens mold semi-finished products used to manufacture contact lens molds, obtain first position information; wherein, the first position information is used to indicate the position where the contact lens mold semi-finished products are temporarily placed, and the position indicated by the first position information is the position on the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment.

[0067] It can be understood that a location on the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment can be understood as a specific workstation or storage area on the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment used to temporarily store semi-finished contact lens molds. In an automated production process, in order to ensure production efficiency and accuracy, semi-finished products need to be precisely placed and removed at specific stages of the manufacturing process.

[0068] For example, obtaining the first position information can employ technologies such as a laser rangefinder, an identification tag reader, or a robotic arm's visual positioning system. A laser rangefinder calculates distance by emitting a laser beam and measuring the time it takes for the beam to reflect back, allowing it to determine the precise position of a semi-finished contact lens mold on the manufacturing equipment. An identification tag reader obtains position information by reading an identification tag attached to the semi-finished contact lens mold. This method is fast, accurate, and requires no direct contact with the semi-finished contact lens mold. The robotic arm's visual positioning system uses a camera to capture images of the semi-finished contact lens mold and uses image processing algorithms to determine its position. This system is suitable for positioning semi-finished contact lens molds in various complex environments and with varying shapes.

[0069] S320A: Inspect the semi-finished contact lens mold based on the first position information to obtain semi-finished product identification information. The semi-finished product identification information indicates X manufacturing steps required to repair the semi-finished contact lens mold. The X manufacturing steps are at least one defect that needs to be repaired, i.e., at least one step.

[0070] Exemplarily, the inspection of the semi-finished contact lens mold can be carried out by identifying the semi-finished contact lens mold through an identification tag, obtaining the current defect location of the semi-finished contact lens mold and the required repair equipment, as well as the number of contact lens molds that need to be repaired, so as to determine the semi-finished product identification information.

[0071] S330A, while controlling the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment to manufacture the raw material into the contact lens mold, continuously monitoring the steps that are the same as the X manufacturing steps required to repair the semi-finished contact lens mold indicated by the semi-finished product identification information.

[0072] It can be understood that while controlling the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment to manufacture the raw materials into contact lens molds can be understood as while the raw materials are manufactured into the controlled contact lens molds using the entire process; continuously monitoring the steps that are identical to the X manufacturing steps required for remediating the semi-finished contact lens mold indicated by the semi-finished product identification information can be understood as continuously monitoring the various production steps of the raw materials. When the raw materials reach the steps that are identical to the manufacturing steps required for remediating the semi-finished contact lens mold, the semi-finished contact lens mold is placed after the production of the raw materials, and this production step is completed together to complete the defect repair of the contact lens mold. For example, there are six steps in manufacturing raw materials into qualified contact lens molds. The number of pieces manufactured in a batch of raw materials is multiple, such as dozens, hundreds or thousands, etc. In this example, if it is 100 pieces, then the defect of the semi-finished contact lens mold is the third step and needs to be repaired. Therefore, when the raw materials are ready for the third manufacturing step, it is necessary to first complete the manufacturing of 100 new (raw materials) and then repair the semi-finished contact lens mold. That is, the semi-finished contact lens mold is placed behind the 100th one and is repaired as the 101st one. In addition, when the defects of the contact lens mold semi-finished product have multiple defects that need to be repaired, for example, there are two defects to be repaired, then it can be achieved according to the following method, that is (the above conditions remain unchanged), the defects of the contact lens mold semi-finished product need to be repaired in the second manufacturing step and the fifth manufacturing step, then when the raw material is ready to proceed to the second manufacturing step, it is necessary to first complete the manufacturing of 100 new (raw materials) and then repair the contact lens mold semi-finished product, that is, place the contact lens mold semi-finished product behind the 100th one and repair it as the 101st one. After the second manufacturing step is completed, the contact lens mold semi-finished product is placed at the position for temporarily placing the contact lens mold semi-finished product indicated by the first position information. When the raw material is ready to proceed to the fifth manufacturing step, it is still necessary to first complete the manufacturing of 100 new (raw materials) and then repair the contact lens mold semi-finished product, that is, place the contact lens mold semi-finished product behind the 100th one and repair it as the 101st one. The fifth manufacturing step is completed and, after completion, it is placed again at the position for temporarily placing the contact lens mold semi-finished product indicated by the first position information, waiting for the raw material to complete all steps.

[0073] In addition, the position for temporarily placing the semi-finished contact lens mold indicated by the first position information can be a position on the fully automatic manufacturing equipment for the contact lens mold, for example, it can be a plate-like structure, and its position moves under the control of the control device (that is, the control device is communicated with its plate-like structure for controlling its movement), or it can be a plate-like structure corresponding to each manufacturing step. In the case where each manufacturing step corresponds to a plate-like structure, if the contact lens mold has two defects that need to be repaired, the contact lens mold needs to be placed on the plate-like structure at the corresponding manufacturing step. When the step is completed, the contact lens mold is placed on the plate-like structure at the next corresponding manufacturing step.

[0074] S340A, when a step is detected that is identical to the X manufacturing steps required for remediating the semi-finished contact lens mold as indicated by the semi-finished product identification information, after inserting the semi-finished contact lens mold into the raw material, the steps of manufacturing the contact lens mold are sequentially completed for the raw material and the semi-finished contact lens mold; wherein the semi-finished contact lens mold only participates in the steps that are identical to the X manufacturing steps required for remediating the semi-finished contact lens mold as indicated by the semi-finished product identification information, and the raw material continues to complete the remaining steps of manufacturing the contact lens mold.

[0075] It can be understood that the semi-finished contact lens mold only participates in the steps that are identical to the X manufacturing steps required for remediation of the semi-finished contact lens mold as indicated by the semi-finished product identification information, which can be understood as the semi-finished contact lens mold only undergoing the manufacturing steps required for remediation, and after the semi-finished contact lens mold is remediated, it continues to be placed in the first position and waits for the raw materials to be manufactured into qualified products before being packaged together; the raw materials continue to complete the remaining steps of manufacturing the contact lens mold, which can be understood as the raw materials continuing to complete the remaining unfinished steps after completing the steps that are identical to the steps for remediation of the semi-finished contact lens mold, until the last manufacturing step is completed; This setup fully utilizes the production capacity of manufacturing equipment, improving production efficiency. Furthermore, because semi-finished products and raw materials are processed on the same production line, processing conditions are consistent, helping to ensure product quality. Furthermore, this setup reduces the handling and storage of semi-finished products, reducing production costs.

[0076] In a specific embodiment, when a step identical to the remedial step indicated by the semi-finished product identification information is detected, the control device will automatically adjust the operating parameters of the manufacturing equipment to accurately insert the semi-finished contact lens mold into the production sequence of the raw material, so that the semi-finished contact lens mold and the raw material can complete the same manufacturing steps synchronously. After the semi-finished product completes the remedial step, the control device will adjust the operating parameters of the manufacturing equipment again, remove the semi-finished contact lens mold from the production sequence, and place it in a designated location to await subsequent packaging and inspection processes. The raw material will continue to complete the remaining manufacturing steps until it becomes a qualified contact lens mold. This flexible production method can meet different production needs, improve production efficiency and product quality, not only without delaying the manufacture of a new batch, but also capable of remedying the semi-finished contact lens mold and defective products, thereby increasing flexibility and reducing the frequency of machine switching and downtime.

[0077] In one possible implementation, see Figure 5 , S300, the method further includes: S310B, when the material on the initial placement platform indicated by the process material information is detected as raw materials used to manufacture contact lens molds and defective contact lens molds, obtain second position information; wherein the second position information is used to indicate the position where the defective contact lens molds are temporarily placed, and the position indicated by the second position information is the position on the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment.

[0078] It can be understood that the position indicated by the first position information for temporarily placing the semi-finished contact lens mold and the position indicated by the second position information for temporarily placing the defective contact lens mold are not the same position, but two different positions; the position indicated by the second position information for temporarily placing the defective contact lens mold is located before the multi-ring defocus step (because the reason for the defective product is that the multi-ring defocus value is not met); in addition, the defective contact lens mold not only has the defect of not meeting the multi-ring defocus value, but may also have other defects. If there is only a defect in the multi-ring defocus value, then after the repair is completed, it can wait for the raw materials to be manufactured into qualified products and then be packaged together. If the multi-ring defocus value is still not met after the repair, it will be defined as waste; if there is a defect in the multi-ring defocus value and other defects, after the defect in the multi-ring defocus value is repaired, the other defects will be repaired. After repairing the other defects, wait for the raw materials to be manufactured into qualified products and then be packaged together.

[0079] For example, obtaining the second location information can also be accomplished using technologies such as a laser rangefinder, an identification tag reader, or a robotic arm's visual positioning system. A laser rangefinder calculates distance by emitting a laser beam and measuring the time it takes for it to reflect back, allowing it to determine the precise location of a defective contact lens mold on the manufacturing equipment. An identification tag reader can obtain location information by reading an identification tag attached to a defective contact lens mold. This method is fast, accurate, and requires no direct contact with the defective contact lens mold. A robotic arm's visual positioning system can capture images of defective products through a camera and determine their location using image processing algorithms. This system is suitable for locating defective contact lens molds in various complex environments and with varying shapes.

[0080] S320B, detecting defective contact lens molds according to the first position information to obtain defective product identification information; wherein the defective product identification information is used to indicate Y manufacturing steps required to remedy the defective contact lens molds.

[0081] For example, defective contact lens molds can be detected by identifying the defective contact lens molds using identification tags, obtaining the current defect location, required repair equipment, and the number of molds requiring repair, thereby determining defective product identification information. Y manufacturing steps represent at least one defect requiring repair, i.e., at least one step.

[0082] S330B, while controlling the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment to manufacture the raw materials into contact lens molds, continuously monitoring the steps that are the same as the Y manufacturing steps required to remedy the defective contact lens molds indicated by the defective product identification information.

[0083] It can be understood that this step is substantially similar to the aforementioned step S330A. Continuously monitoring the X manufacturing steps required to repair a defective contact lens mold, as indicated by the defective product identification information, can be understood as continuously monitoring each production step of the raw material. When the raw material reaches the same manufacturing step as the one required to repair the defective contact lens mold, the defective contact lens mold is placed after the raw material production, and the production step is completed together, so that the contact lens mold is completely repaired. For example, there are six steps in manufacturing the raw material into a qualified contact lens mold. The number of raw material batches produced can be multiple, such as dozens, hundreds, or thousands. In this example, 50 batches are produced. At this time, the defect of the defective contact lens mold is the fourth step, which requires repair. Therefore, when the raw material is ready to proceed to the fourth manufacturing step, the 50 new (raw material) molds need to be manufactured first before repairing the defective contact lens mold. That is, the defective contact lens mold is placed after the 50th mold and repaired as the 51st mold. In addition, when the defects of the defective contact lens mold have multiple defects that need to be repaired, for example, there are two defects to be repaired, then it can be achieved according to the following method, that is (the above conditions remain unchanged), the defects of the defective contact lens mold need to be repaired in the second manufacturing step and the fifth manufacturing step, then when the raw material is ready to proceed to the second manufacturing step, it is necessary to first complete the manufacturing of 50 new (raw materials) and then repair the defective contact lens mold, that is, place the defective contact lens mold behind the 50th one and repair it as the 51st one. After the second manufacturing step is completed, the defective contact lens mold is placed at the position for temporarily placing the defective contact lens mold indicated by the first position information. When the raw material is ready to proceed to the fifth manufacturing step, it is still necessary to first complete the manufacturing of 50 new (raw materials) and then repair the defective contact lens mold, that is, place the defective contact lens mold behind the 50th one and repair it as the 51st one. After the fifth manufacturing step is completed, it is placed again at the position for temporarily placing the defective contact lens mold indicated by the first position information, waiting for the raw material to complete all steps.

[0084] In addition, the position for temporarily placing defective contact lens molds indicated by the first position information can be a position on the fully automatic manufacturing equipment for contact lens molds, for example, it can also be a plate-like structure, and its position moves under the control of the control device (that is, the control device is communicated with its plate-like structure for controlling its movement), or it can be a plate-like structure corresponding to each manufacturing step. In the case where each manufacturing step corresponds to a plate-like structure, if the contact lens mold has two defects that need to be repaired, the contact lens mold needs to be placed on the plate-like structure at the corresponding manufacturing step. When the step is completed, the contact lens mold is placed on the plate-like structure at the next corresponding manufacturing step.

[0085] S340B, when detecting the same steps as the Y manufacturing steps required to remedy the defective contact lens mold indicated by the defective product identification information, after inserting the defective contact lens mold into the raw material, the steps of manufacturing the contact lens mold are completed in sequence for the raw material and the defective contact lens mold; wherein, the defective contact lens mold only participates in the same steps as the Y manufacturing steps required to remedy the defective contact lens mold indicated by the defective product identification information, and the raw material continues to complete the remaining steps of manufacturing the contact lens mold.

[0086] It can be understood that the defective contact lens mold only participates in the steps that are the same as the X manufacturing steps required for remediation of the semi-finished contact lens mold indicated by the semi-finished product identification information. It can be understood that the defective contact lens mold only undergoes the manufacturing steps required for remediation, and when the defective contact lens mold is remediated, it continues to be placed in the first position and waits for the raw materials to be manufactured into qualified products before being packaged together; the raw materials continue to complete the remaining steps of manufacturing the contact lens mold. It can be understood that after the raw materials complete the steps that are the same as the steps for remediating the defective contact lens mold, they continue to complete the remaining unfinished steps until the last manufacturing step is completed.

[0087] This setup allows for timely and effective remediation of defective contact lens molds, preventing accumulation and delays. Furthermore, because defective products and raw materials are processed on the same production line, consistent processing conditions are maintained. This allows defective contact lens molds to be inserted into the raw material production sequence at the correct time and promptly removed after the remediation steps are completed. This not only improves production efficiency but also enhances production flexibility and controllability.

[0088] In a possible implementation, at S300, the method further includes: S310C, when the materials on the initial placement platform indicated by the process material information are detected as raw materials used to manufacture contact lens molds, semi-finished contact lens molds, and defective contact lens molds, compare the X manufacturing steps required to remediate the semi-finished contact lens molds indicated by the semi-finished product identification information with the Y manufacturing steps required to remediate the defective contact lens molds indicated by the defective product identification information to obtain comparison information and sequence information; wherein the comparison information is used to indicate whether the semi-finished product identification information and the defective product identification information have the same manufacturing steps, and the sequence information is used to indicate the order of the manufacturing steps.

[0089] It can be understood that whether the semi-finished product identification information and the defective product identification information indicated by the comparison information have the same manufacturing steps can be understood as whether the semi-finished contact lens mold and the defective contact lens mold have the same defects that need to be repaired; among them, if the semi-finished contact lens mold and the defective contact lens mold have the same defects, the order of repair is the semi-finished contact lens mold and the defective contact lens mold; it should be noted that only when the semi-finished contact lens mold and the defective contact lens mold both have multiple defects (that is, two or more) can there be the same defects, because if there is only one defective contact lens mold, it must be a multi-ring defocus defect.

[0090] S320C, based on comparison information and sequence information, controls contact lens mold manufacturing equipment to manufacture raw materials into contact lens molds, and repairs contact lens mold semi-finished products and contact lens mold defective products.

[0091] For example, in the process of manufacturing raw materials into contact lens molds according to the manufacturing process and manufacturing flow of manufacturing information, the contact lens mold manufacturing equipment is controlled by using comparison information and sequence information to remedy the defective contact lens mold semi-finished products and defective contact lens molds. Among them, when the repaired contact lens mold semi-finished products and defective contact lens molds both have one defect, there is no need for comparison information and sequence information, because when both have only one defect, the defective contact lens mold is a multi-ring defocus defect, and the contact lens mold semi-finished product is a defect after the multi-ring defocus defect (for example, there are 5 manufacturing steps in total, and the multi-ring defocus step is the second one, then the contact lens mold semi-finished product requires any one of the third to fifth manufacturing steps); if the repaired contact lens mold semi-finished products and the defective contact lens mold both have multiple defects, for example, 2, the defective contact lens mold is first subjected to multi-ring defocus defect. The defect is repaired, and there is 1 defect left after the repair. When the contact lens mold semi-finished product is repairing the defect of multi-ring defocusing of the defective contact lens mold, no one has been repaired yet. This is because when the defective contact lens mold is repairing the defect of multi-ring defocusing, the raw material has just been processed to the multi-ring defocusing step. Therefore, after the multi-ring defocusing process, the 1 defect left in the defective contact lens mold is compared with the 2 defects in the semi-finished contact lens mold. If there is any similarity, the semi-finished contact lens mold and the defective contact lens mold are arranged in order for remediation. If there is no similarity, they are remediated independently without the need to obtain sequence information.

[0092] This setup allows for efficient remediation of both semi-finished contact lens molds and defective contact lens molds on the same production line, eliminating the need for frequent line switching or downtime adjustments, further improving production efficiency and flexibility. Furthermore, by comparing and prioritizing the remediation steps for semi-finished and defective products, the production process can be optimized, reducing unnecessary waiting time and ensuring that contact lens molds are manufactured at the fastest speed and with the highest quality. This fully automated manufacturing method is suitable not only for large-scale production but also for small-batch, high-variety production.
