Acetate frames are crafted primarily from cotton fibers, combined with wood pulp for added strength.
This unique blend ensures lightweight durability and comfort. The natural materials allow for vibrant colors and intricate patterns.
Acetate’s versatility makes it a top choice for premium eyewear.
Cotton bolls are carefully picked and thoroughly cleaned to remove impurities. This ensures the purity and quality of
the fibers used in acetate production. The cleaned cotton is then processed into cellulose, forming the base material.
This meticulous process results in durable, eco-friendly eyewear frames.
This step is one of the most fascinating in acetate sheet production, showcasing precision and craftsmanship.
It sets the foundation for creating unique and stylish eyewear designs.
In this step, colors are carefully added by hand, creating vibrant and intricate patterns. The process allows for unique,
custom hues that make each acetate sheet one-of-a-kind. The result is a large, colorful sheet of cellulose acetate ready for
frame production. This craftsmanship ensures that every pair of eyewear has a distinct, stylish appeal.
The sheets are then cut into small pellets, which are easier to handle during the molding process. These uniform pellets ensure consistency
in the final product. This step prepares the acetate for shaping into durable, stylish eyewear frames.
Different colored pellets are carefully mixed together to create unique, stunning patterns. The mixture is then pressed into solid
blocks, forming the base for custom eyewear designs. This process results in vibrant, one-of-a-kind acetate blocks ready for shaping.
The final sheets are carefully cut from the pressed acetate blocks, showcasing the intricate patterns and colors.
These sheets are then polished for a smooth finish, ready for eyewear production. This step ensures each sheet is perfect for crafting high-quality frames.
The sheets are further cut into small pieces, preparing them for the final shaping process. These pieces are then hung to dry for several weeks,
allowing the material to fully set and harden. This drying period ensures the acetate maintains its durability and flexibility for eyewear production.
The sheets are placed in a CNC cutting machine, where precision is key. The inner margin of the frame is carefully cut out first,
ensuring a perfect fit for the final design. This step marks the beginning of shaping the acetate into the desired eyewear frame.
After the inner margin is cut, the outer margin is marked and carefully cut to shape the frames. This step ensures the frames achieve
their final form and size. The result is a perfectly shaped acetate frame, ready for further detailing and polishing.
The flat frame front is then placed in a front mould machine, where it is carefully curved to achieve the desired base curve.
This step ensures the frame fits comfortably on the wearer’s face. The curvature process is essential for both style and functionality in the final design.
The frame fronts are immersed in hot acetone water to dissolve and remove any leftover scraps. This step ensures a clean and smooth surface,
preparing the frames for the polishing process.
The frame fronts are placed in a rolling drum with small wooden chips and rolled continuously for 5 to 7 days, or sometimes longer.
This process smooths the surfaces and polishes the frames, giving them a refined and high-quality finish.
The tumbling action resembles stones rolling in a river, gradually smoothing their surfaces. Similarly, the frame fronts become
smooth and polished, achieving a flawless finish through this process.
The longer the tumbling process continues, the better the polish and finish of the frame fronts. This extended action ensures a
superior, high-quality sheen.
The temples are precisely cut from the acetate sheets using a CNC cutting machine, ensuring accurate dimensions and a
perfect fit for the frames.
Steel rods are gently heated and inserted into the core of the temples, providing stability and flexibility for
easy adjustment and long-lasting durability.
Hinges are securely attached to the temples, ensuring durability and smooth movement. The temples are then
polished using the same tumbling process, achieving a sleek and refined finish.
Screws are carefully fitted into the frame front, securely attaching the temples. This ensures a sturdy connection
and smooth movement for the finished eyewear.
With all components assembled and polished, the frames undergo a final quality check. Once approved, they are carefully
packed and ready for dispatch.
