Quantum Innovations Offers Stainless Steel Bell Jar Upgrade for Zeiss B12 Coater
Product: Stainless steel bell jar upgrade for Zeiss B12 coater
Top Line: For labs running a Zeiss B12 AR coater, there are many challenges surrounding the bell jar. Over time, the visibility through the once clear bell jar becomes diminished, or worse, the jar itself can become cracked or broken.
In response to these issues, Quantum Innovations has developed a stainless steel bell jar upgrade that solves many of the most common problems facing B12 owners/operators such as fragility, visibility, safety and difficulty repairing the unit.
Close Up: Key features of Quantum’s stainless steel bell jar:
• Manufactured with materials that are readily available for a significant cost savings.
• The shields inside the stainless steel bell jar can be removed and bead blasted just like other items in the lab. This eliminates the need to use a dangerous acid wash.
• The two view ports are easily cleaned or replaced as visibility becomes diminished, by usage and treatment, providing better control of your AR process.
• The stainless steel bell jar can be easily repaired, even by some local machine shops, creating a significant savings in cost and time.

Close Up: The course includes case studies and insights from members of Transitions Optical’s Diversity Advisory Board, as well as winners and finalists for the Transitions Academy Awards program.

The course is supplemented by a series of short, best practice
videos, which are also available through MyMulticulturalToolkit.com.
“While many eyecare professionals already have strategies in place to better serve their culturally diverse patients, others continue to feel overwhelmed by the concept of cultural competency and aren’t sure where to begin,” said Manuel Solis, multicultural marketing manager, Transitions Optical. “We hope that the course and educational videos will help ease the process for eyecare professionals – whether they’re starting from scratch, or simply want to enhance their existing efforts to improve cultural competency within their practices.”
