Lona 5

Lona 5, our fifth-generation software, is built for the design and manufacturing of eyewear fronts. It lets you design a frame and machine it on our 5-axis machines — the MP5, a semi-automatic machine for opticians and small production runs, and the MF5, a fully automatic machine for manufacturers.

What sets Lona 5 apart is its “downstream design” mode, an OAXA-MicroLab exclusive: instead of drawing a frame, the designer simply sculpts it in 3D — free to focus on pure creativity while the software handles everything needed to manufacture it.

Powered by advanced algorithms — developed with two PhDs in mathematics — Lona 5 brings even the most elaborate shapes to life, exactly as you imagined them.

  • No programming: the machine program is created with a single click.

  • Make design and manufacturing more accessible to novices

  • Add realistic simulation mode

  • Machining programs for tulips and templates produced automatically
