About JAM Vision Track3 Armação de Óculos

O JAM Vision Track3 é uma armação de óculos concebida para um baixo impacto ambiental. As frentes e as pontas são fabricadas em PA11 por manufatura aditiva, o que limita o desperdício de material. As hastes e a ponte são cortadas a laser em aço inoxidável totalmente reciclado. Cada armação é produzida sob demanda, evitando assim estoques e excedentes. Todas as peças são unidas mecanicamente, sem solda ou cola, permitindo que uma peça isolada seja substituída caso se quebre. Uma dobradiça magnética patenteada elimina a necessidade de parafusos e foi testada ao longo de 100.000 ciclos de dobra sem perda de desempenho. A armação completa pesa menos de 20 gramas.

Unique Properties
The Eyewear is fully sustainable, economical, made on demand, and innovative. Thanks to additive manufacturing and Laser cut stainless steel 100% recycled, made on demand, the project is eco-responsible without creating wasted product. Thanks to the patented simple hinges and the clipping system, it could be assembled even by the end user ! Also, as the patented hinge is based on magnetic elements, the hinge is life lasting (100.000 folding test has been made, without any loss performance !)
Dimensions & Packaging
145x155x45mm / Less than 20g
Tags
Sustainable, innovative, magnetic hinges, 3Dprinted, mechanical assembly, Made on demand
Production Technology
PA11 additive manufactured, 100% recycled stainless steel, and our know-how in terms of 3D printing constraint and possibilities. Patented hinge obtained by magnets assembly to create friction and axis
Design Challenge
When we decided to launch a brand, we decided that the footprint of this line needs to be as minimum as possible. The eyewear industry use to work with classical soustractive solution (80% of the raw material is trashed), and fixed assembly solution (riveted, soldered, shouted). We decided to start with a brand new method, work in additive, source only eco responsible material, and mechanical easy assembly, to eventually leave the customer to do it by himself.
Inspiration
We were inspired by Ikea, for the easy assembly, and also by the old metal toys to be bend and assembly. Then, lines are inspired by minimalism Japanese spirit, and engineering achievement that we learnt working with some high-end customer (like McLaren). Hinges came thanks to my passion for magnets
Project Duration
8 months of creation and pre-production, designed in Lyon, France
Operation Flow
This frame is obtained by easy assembly between parts after high personalization of each parts, made on demand, without high stock. All the elements are easy to remove in order to replace just one part in case of breakage. The hinge itself has been tested with 100.000 folding, without any reduction of performance, which push the boundaries of every other ones resistance.
